Extending to 5.2 Acres (2.1 Ha) this Green Belt site benefits from a Draft Allocation for Housing Development within the Emerging Local Plan. Situated adjacent to Baildon Church of England Primary School (rated Outstanding in All Areas) on the Northern fringe of the settlement of Baildon, the site is afforded an open aspect across countryside to the North. Centred around Gride Reference SE162399 and held under Title YK17042 the site is anticipated to deliver in the region of 50 dwellings.
The site benefits from a Draft Allocation for Housing within the Reg 18 version of the emerging Local Plan. The site is identified as BA5/H in the Housing Delivery and Strategic Sites section (HO1) and is earmarked to deliver 40 units. We have carried out an architectural feasibility study and think 50+ units would be more appropriate. As a result of the Regulation 19 consultation being pushed back at least another year, we are considering whether a Grey Belt application on this site might be appropriate as we understand that it meets the necessary criteria. To that end, we are keen to understand the difference the additional 15% Affordable Housing (that will be levied against any Grey Belt application) makes.
All Planning and Technical due diligence undertaken to date to support the Representation that have been made to the Local Plan can be found in the ‘Documents and Downloads’ section. This includes the following:
The entirety of the land is held under Title YK17042
The site is not elected for VAT
The site can be seen from the end of Meadowside Road. Currently used as a horse paddock we would ask you to refrain from going onto the land at this stage.
The site is for sale via Informal Tender and we would ask for 2 bids, 1 based on 25% Affordable Housing and the other based on 35%. We would ask for hard copy bids to be sent to the selling agent’s office (address below) by noon on Tuesday 9th December 2025. We will accept electronic submissions on the proviso the hard copy follows in the post.
