Site Overview

The land available extends to 1.1 acres (0.45 ha) consisting of a cleared site (formerly occupied by Clifton Mills) located in the centre of Brighouse. The site benefits from strong main road frontage to Bradford Road along its western boundary and Birkby Lane to its south. Access is proposed to the east from Axminster Drive, adjacent to a recently completed residential development by Miller Homes. A parcel of land abutting the northern boundary of the subject site forms part of a wider ‘mixed – use’ element that is excluded from the sale.

Bailiff Bridge is a well-regarded settlement conveniently located approximately 2km north of Brighouse, providing a range of convenience retail and leisure facilities. Halifax (5km west) and Bradford (10km north) are readily accessible by public transport, and Junction 26 of the M62 motorway is easily accessible approximately 3km east of the site. Brighouse provides a train station offering regular rail links east and west.

Town Planning

The subject site benefits from Reserved Matters planning consent for 23 houses, originally granted in October 2020 (TP ref: 20/00051/RES) and as subsequently amended under a further approval in September 2021 (TP ref: 21/00804/RES ). The approved scheme is shown on the proposed layout available in the ‘Documents and Downloads’ section of this website. The adjacent parcel to the north benefits from Reserved Matters planning consent for a Co-op convenience retail store and associated car parking. Details of this planning permission are included in the ‘Documents and Downloads’ section for information. Please note our client will be delivering this element of the scheme.

As part of the development the access in to the subject site will be constructed by our clients, shown under the ‘Sec. 278 Drawings’; in the ‘Documents and Downloads’ section.

Please also note a drainage connection will be provided as part of the Co-op development for the developer of the residential scheme to connect in to, in accordance with the Drainage Strategy provided.
