This small site is in green belt but is in very poor condition – nothing grows on a large part of it. Access is straight onto the A65 Skipton Road and the junction would need to be carefully designed. Substantial earthworks, the remains of the former railway embankment dominate the site and would need removal to render the area habitable.

We suggest that the line of the railway embankment through this site is reserved for the Greenway en route to Addingham.
