DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The site, which has potential for a care home, forms part of a larger area for which planning permission was granted in 2015. The approved scheme permits 151 dwellings, a new roundabout and access from Biggleswade Road, an area of employment land, a site for a community hall, and public open space. The main residential part of the overall site was purchased by Kier Living and the development of Kier's "Tall Trees" scheme is now well underway.

The site is located less than half a mile from Potton town centre and its picturesque Market Square. With a net developable area of 0.45 ha (1.1 acres) the land which is now being offered forms part of the employment allocation within the original scheme.
LOCATION
Potton is a small but thriving historic market town of approximately 5000 residents situated in the north-eastern rural corner of Bedfordshire close to the border with Cambridgeshire. It is accessible to Cambridge, Bedford, Stevenage, Milton Keynes etc and is well served by the A1, A14 and A421 trunk roads. Main line stations on the east coast line from Sandy, Biggleswade and St Neots provide access into London Kings Cross in well under an hour.
The historic Georgian Market Square at the heart of the Town provides a wide range of shops and services with the Town Library accommodated in the Clock House. Close by is a Tesco Express, McColl's, Doctors Surgery and Dentist.
The Town also has much to offer in the form of community and sports facilities and activities with many of the latter (including Football, Cricket and Tennis Clubs) being provided at The Hollow which adjoins the development site.
