    Plans have been lodged for 77 new homes in Knaresborough on a former factory site.

    Developer Countryside Properties has earmarked the former Trelleborg factory on Halfpenny Lane in the town for the houses.

    The site is not allocated for housing in Harrogate Borough Council’s Local Plan, but it is included on the council’s Brownfield Land Register, which identifies locations that are considered to be appropriate for redevelopment for residential use.

    As part of the proposal, the development would include a mixture of one, two and three-bedroom homes.

    Planning documents submitted to Harrogate Borough Council show that 30 per cent of the 77 homes would be allocated as affordable housing.

    The developer said in its planning statement:

    “The development at Halfpenny Lane will provide an attractive, high quality designed environment to live. The scale and character of the proposals will ensure that the scheme will contribute to and enhance the immediate and surrounding area.”


    Harrogate Borough Council will make a decision on the plan at a later date.
