Approval has been granted for the erection of one self-build dwelling.

Planning
HGTZC24/02674/out | Outline application for the erection of one self build dwelling (0.1 ha) with access considered.

Location
The Site covers approximately 0.1 hectares and is located on the outskirts of Scotton village, about 1.2 miles northwest of Knaresborough. The Site is currently an irregular quadrilateral plot used for cattle grazing. It is bordered by undeveloped land to the north and west, Havikil Lane and residential properties to the south, and the grounds of a neighbouring residential property to the east. There are public transport services nearby with train stations at Harrogate and Knaresborough. Scotton contains a number of services and amenities including; The Guy Fawkes Arms Public House; Cricket Club; Village Hall and Children's Playground

Access
The Landowner has amended the access to sit further back within the private track, which reduces the risk of conflict with highway users. Swept path drawings have been provided to evidence that the site can be accessed without impediment to other users attempting to enter or leave the highway. No changes are required to the junction with the highway as a result of this proposal.

Reserved Matters
This application is made in outline with only access to be approved and all other matters are reserved. The reason the application has been made in outline is that the proposal is intended to be self-build. The intention is therefore for the applicant of the reserved matters application to decide upon the appearance, scale, layout and landscaping.

Services
Water, Electricity and Gas connections run in the verge on Havikil Lane.

Contamination
There is no contamination on the site
