Notes

Please note planning permission was granted some years ago for a significant amount of work at the house. This included the building of a double garage. Copies of this planning permission being granted in April 1995 are available at the selling agents office in Holmfirth to be viewed. The implication of this is that the development of this having been commenced, the double garage extension should be able to proceed without too much of a problem however interested parties should satisfy themselves regarding the planning restrictions etc. upon this situation.
