Description

The property comprises approximately 5 acres of land situated on the northern edge of Cubbington, fronting Leicester Lane (A445). The site is currently laid to a mix of hard standing and bunded landscaping, with secure gated access directly off Leicester Lane. It is understood to be brownfield land, historically used by Warwickshire County Council as a source of materials, which supports its potential for redevelopment subject to planning.

Previously operated as a council depot and materials site, the land has long been associated with infrastructure and operational use. Its legacy as a working site contributes to its brownfield designation, offering a strong planning narrative for future development. The presence of existing hard standing and bunded areas reflects its former industrial utility and provides a practical base for new schemes (subject to further land investigations).

The site presents a compelling opportunity for a range of uses, including:
Commercial or industrial development
Storage and logistics
Mixed-use schemes
Renewable energy or infrastructure projects
Residential

Its scale, access, and location make it suitable for both standalone operations and multi-unit layouts. The brownfield status may support favorable planning outcomes, especially in the context of regional growth and land supply pressures.
