78 homes proposed at former Trelleborg factory site in Knaresborough
People in Knaresborough are being asked to comment on a proposed 78-home housing development on the site of the now demolished Trelleborg factory on Halfpenny Lane.
Countryside Properties, which is part of the Pegasus Group, is behind the scheme. They are yet to submit a formal planning application but say comments will help inform the types of homes it will include.
The site is not allocated for housing in Harrogate Borough Council's Local Plan, but it is included on the council's Brownfield Land Register which identifies sites that are considered to be appropriate for redevelopment for residential use.

A website for the development claims the company specialises in homes that focus on "energy efficiency and green living, making people’s lives and the environment a better place to be."
The consultation ends on April 7 and people can submit their comments here.
Meanwhile, work recently begun on a separate development on Halfpenny Lane where Persimmon Homes is building 74 homes. The first homes are expected to be completed this Autumn.
