Key Features

• Established Dimension Stone Quarry
• 900,000 tonnes of permitted reserves
• Extraction & aggregate crushing consent
• Strategic location with good access
• Owner/occupier opportunity
• Planning permission for mineral extraction is consented under reference 2014/1075/CNT and this permission has recently been reviewed and has a statutory back stop date of 21st February 2042. The newly approved extension is consented under SCC/4071/2023 and allows for winning and working of stone for a period of 61 years from commencement. The same planning permission also allows for the construction of a new road access to adjoin the main highway along the A361 and removes a restriction on crushing waste stone. We are not aware of any conditions in the current planning permission restricting the use of the buildings to the activities or lifetime of the quarry operations. The land and buildings have potential for other commercial uses subject to planning. Prospective purchasers are advised to make enquiries with Somerset County Council regarding the potential for alternative uses.
• Energy Performance Certificates have been commissioned and the relevant properties have been assessed at D.
