Land adjacent to the Golden Lion , Blackburn Road, Higher Wheelton, Chorley, Lancashire PR6 8HP

An irregular shaped site extending to approximately 0.19 acres (0.079 hectares) comprising land and buildings situated in the popular village of Higher Wheelton. The site is bordered by the Golden Lion pub to the west and residential housing to the east with frontage onto Blackburn Road (A674). We understand the buildings, which are now dilapidated, were historically residential cottages but have been used more recently to house cattle and are sold as seen with no warranty offered for their structural integrity or future use etc. The site could have potential for development subject to necessary planning consents and attention is drawn to a culvert that appears to run over some of the site and an unregistered right of access deed, further information can be found within the legal pack.

Between exchange and completion Electricity North West will erect a fence around their retained land and the purchaser will be responsible for re-imbursing that cost which we understand to be £3,648.13+VAT.

The site fronts onto Blackburn Road in the centre of the village but is accessed via a metal gate situated to the rear of the Golden Lion on Brown House. Some daily amenities can be found in the surrounding area and villages with a wider array of facilities available in nearby Chorley which sits approximately 4 miles to the south.

Approximately 0.15 acres (0.06 hectares)
