LOCATION
The site is situated on Lanark Road (A72) forming part of the Clyde Valley Tourist Route between Larkhall and Lanark, in South Lanarkshire. It lies approximately 1 mile to the east of Junction 7 of the M74, the principal trunk road between Scotland and England and similarly from Garrion Bridge which provides connections to towns including Lanark, Wishaw, and Carluke.
DESCRIPTION
The site is irregular in shape sloping easterly towards the River Clyde. Due to agricultural works, the site levels have been raised in recent years and an entrance has been formed. The shell of a 440 sq m agricultural building has been constructed on site, although a recent planning consent has been granted to allow it to be extended to 1,000 sq m (P/22/0294).
The site extends to 1.16ha (2.86 acres) with a road frontage of 160 m. The title also extends to the mid-point of the river creating further development potential. Additional land can be offered should this be necessary.
The front page illustration shows how a Visitor Centre could sit on the site. This has been provided for guidance purposes only and would be subject to obtaining formal planning consent.
OPPORTUNITIES
This is expected to be the last commercial site available on the Clyde Valley Tourist Route between Larkhall and Lanark. It is exceptionally well positioned at the northern end of the route to attract business lying just off the M74 with traffic flow peaking at 4,500 cars on a Sunday. Possible uses of the site include:
Distillery
Garden and Gift Centre
Wedding Venue
Petting Farm
Holiday Park
Commercial Yard with Private Residence
Industrial Facility
Alternative Agricultural Use
