    Planning
    HGTZC24/02674/out | Outline application for the erection of one self build dwelling (0.1 ha) with access considered.

    Location
    The Site covers approximately 0.1 hectares and is located on the outskirts of Scotton village, about 1.2 miles northwest of Knaresborough.

Scotton contains a number of services and amenities including; The Guy Fawkes Arms Public House; Cricket Club; Village Hall and Children's Playground

    Access
    The Landowner has amended the access to sit further back within the private track, which reduces the risk of conflict with highway users. Swept path drawings have been provided to evidence that the site can be accessed without impediment to other users attempting to enter or leave the highway. No changes are required to the junction with the highway as a result of this proposal.

    Reserved Matters

The reason the application has been made in outline is that the proposal is intended to be self-build.
