Planning Potential
The planning history with regards to the property can be provided upon request, although prospective purchasers should make their own enquires. Also it is up to Prospective Purchasers to make their own enquiries with regards to planning and all other related matters. It is advised that any prospective purchaser seeks their own advice with regards to any such matter and enquire with the Local Planning Authority.

Please see as follows from the Vendor’s Planning Consultant with regards future
development:- “The Hillside Farm site is outside of but adjoining the Principal settlement of Workington (defined in the Local Plan to include Seaton) which is identified as the focus for new development in Allerdale. Local Plan policies relating to replacement buildings, extensions to existing building and conversion or reuse of existing buildings indicate redevelopment potential here. Moreover, the fact that the site comprises an existing dwelling and numerous agricultural buildings some which will benefit from permitted development rights for change of use from agricultural to residential use (subject to criteria) provide a strong basis for discussions with the local planning authority. Against this background there is scope for a more comprehensive approach along the lines of the indicative sketch proposal where there would be wider benefits associated with such development including improving the visual appearance of the site in the street scene and wider landscape setting.” For further information including the indicative sketch proposal please contact the Vendor’s Planning Consultant, Paul Brailsford of Freeths LLP on Paul.

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
