Description
The property is a 5.94-acre site currently used for agriculture, located at the western edge of Thurgoland village, near Barnsley. The site has a gentle slope and frontage onto the A629, providing access to the wider road network. The village has a range of amenities, including a doctor's surgery, primary school, and public houses. The site is currently classified as open countryside, but with the Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council (BMBC) facing a housing shortage and underdelivering on their housing numbers, there is an opportunity to promote the site through the Local Plan Review process. The council is expected to allocate land that is currently greenbelt or open countryside, and the site's promoters believe it has the potential to be developed into a housing scheme. They are seeking a partner to promote the site, either through a House Builder Option Agreement or a Planning Promotional Agreement, and are inviting proposals to be submitted by October 30th, 2025.
