Developers behind plans for an extension of a caravan park in Knaresborough have withdrawn the proposal.
The proposal by Lido Leisure Parks would have seen the Low Bridge Holiday Park, Abbey Road, expanded with a further 28 caravans.
Documents submitted to Harrogate Borough Council say the plan would have seen the development built on Orchard Cliffs on Briggate.
As well as the holiday lodges, car parking and access were also included in the application.
