Woodfield Farm, York Road, Thirsk, YO7 3AD

currently we have planning permission granted for a car boot change of use (Application 18/00873/FUL) refers. This permission was granted in 2018. Since that time the car boot has grown in popularity and there is a now a need to expand the footprint of the car boot to allow more parking for visitors to the area. The request is for the adjoining field to be granted planning for exactly the same proposal as the above application. In doing so this may alleviate any issues for vehicles entering and leaving the event as there would be increased capacity for parking for people who are attending

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

What decided it

The proposal would increase parking capacity and vehicle movements at a location where the existing car boot sale already causes significant queuing on the A19, thereby having an unacceptable effect on highway safety.

Plan policies cited: Policy IC2 of the Hambleton Local Plan
