Plans have been approved to expand a Harrogate district business park to create five new buildings in an effort to boost the local economy.

Springfield Farm, on Cold Cotes Road at Kettlesing Head, just off the A59, will expand to include a new warehouse and office space.

The site’s car park will also be extended and will include electric vehicle charging points.

Harrogate Borough Council approved the proposal last week.

Quarters Commercial Ltd, the developers behind the application, said the scheme will help to “enhance an already important commercial site”.

Meanwhile, three buildings will be built to provide nine separate units for smaller businesses. A further building will also be provided to offer office space for companies.

The developers said in its planning statement:

“Springfield Farm presents a fantastic opportunity to sensitively expand the already established commercial centre and ensure its future success and ongoing contribution to Harrogate.
“This is an exciting chance to enhance an already important commercial site, preserving the character of the area, with a quality masterplan, and well designed buildings where businesses' can thrive, within a sustainable environment.”
