Description
The Old Station is so named because of the site's positioning on the former Ryhall and Belmesthorpe Railway Station, which served the Great Northern Railway network, accommodating both passenger and freight rolling stock. Currently, the edge of the platform and the crossing gate pillars is all that remains of it prior use. The site is nestled into the railway cutting creating views down the platform. The 4.8 acre site is surrounded by open fields and mature planting with river frontage onto the river Gwash to the south and only 2.8 miles from Stamford.
Planning has been approved, with a large emphasis on environmental factors, for a three double bedroom property, with two en suite bathrooms and a family bathroom, a large open plan kitchen and living area, utility room and private reading and study spaces with views out onto the garden space surrounding.
Ground source heating will efficiently heat the property and provide hot water. All thermal elements have been designed to surpass building regulations Model U-Values by an additional 15% to lower the running costs and carbon footprint of the house. A 'Mechanical Vent and Heat Recovery' would be utilized to maximize the efficiency of the heating and ventilation of the house.
External materials for the house will come from local sources where possible; charred black timber cladding, larch cladding and aluminum curtain glazing are some of the exterior materials which have been approved.

Broadband availability and predicted speed
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
