About this lot
Live Stream Auction
A Grade II listed church in Morley, Leeds, with potential for development. The church, aptly named "St Marys In The Wood" United Reformed Church, suffered fire damage many years ago and has remained untouched since. The building previously formed part of a planning application, dated June 2012, whereby Leeds granted full permission and listed building consent (11/03697/FU and 11/03713/LI) to rebuild the fire-damaged church as 18 apartments, plus four houses on the Troy Road frontage as enabling development. This has since lapsed but it does demonstrate that the scheme was supported by English Heritage, the Victorian Society, and Morley Town Council and they may look favourably on a fresh scheme. Please note - The area being sold can be identified by the blue area on the title plan image and would not include the housing. The owner has advised they would be open to providing access, for development, via their gate on Troy Road, assuming maintenance of this gate was shared. Prospective buyers are advised to make all necessary independent enquiries prior to placing their bid. Costs Auction Details The sale of this property will take place on the stated date by way of Live streamed auction and is being sold under the Unconditional sale type.
