A vacant brownfield site on Derwent Street in Blackhill, Consett, is available for purchase, measuring approximately 0.83 acres. The site previously had planning permission for a residential development of over 20 properties, although the permissions have since lapsed. However, it is likely that similar applications would be considered favourably. The site was once home to a table mat factory, which was demolished in 2006 after its closure, and has remained vacant since. The site is ready for immediate possession and can be viewed by appointment only through Weardale Property Agency.
