Executive Summary
The Tender Response Form held on the Data Room must be completed by any bidding party and can be accessed via the Thomas Lister website or the
sole agents.
The closing date for offers to be submitted by 13.00 on 18th September 2026.
The site extends to approximately 0.53 hectares (1.31 acres) and is enclosed by fencing that is surrounding the perimeter, providing a clearly defined parcel, lending itself to development. It is believed that the site has previously been serviced and bidders are recommended to undertake their own due diligence in this regard. The former sewerage works is largely decommissioned, with all foul flows now diverted to the new drainage network serving Whittingham. The site is retained only for occasional surface water discharge during periods of heavy rainfall, via an existing Environment Agency permit to Blundell Brook. This permit is maintained with minimal ongoing requirements and offers flexibility for surface water management as part of any redevelopment.
The site is included within the planning application for the wider Whittingham Hospital Site for redevelopment of up to three dwellings (06/2019/0365) and is also allocated within the Preston City Council Local plan as a part of the wider Whittingham Hospital site (HS1.15 of the adopted plan and HS4.1 of the emerging plan). It is anticipated the site holds opportunity for re-development, subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents.
Purchasers are advised to make their own enquiries to the local planning authority. It is understood that the site is serviced, however, any prospective purchaser is advised to undertake their own due diligence.

Residential development opportunity with outline planning approval for redevelopment for three dwellings.
Description
The site is located on the outskirts of Whittingham, an expanding semi-rural village 4 miles north-east of Preston city centre. The site is to the south of the wider former Whittingham Hospital site, which is being redeveloped to provide a mixed-use development, including up to 750 residential units. Access to the site is made via a roadway (owned by the Seller) off Henry Littler Way, which runs south along the eastern boundary of R J & G L Dewhurst Dairy farm and joins a second roadway (owned by a neighbouring landowner, the right over which is granted by a Right of Way). The Right of Way provides for the “full and free right of passage with or without vehicles at all times over and along the roadway…”. The Right of Way is illustrated as the area hatched brown on the Title Plan. The neighbouring landowner actively disputes the extent of the Right of Way. Purchasers should satisfy themselves of the legal position. Further information in relation to access is set out within the Property Report contained within the Data Room.
