THE SITE This is a straightforward residential development site of about 6.40 acres (2.59 hectares) gross as shown on the attached plan edged red, and is the former Blakeston School, now demolished. It lies in a good residential area on the edge of open countryside yet within easy reach of all facilities. Norton High Street with its shops, restaurants and cafes is a mile to the east and Stockton town centre is two miles south. Primary and secondary schools are close by and the site is well served by public transport in addition to offering easy access to the main road network including the A19 five minutes to the east. Tesco’s Durham Road Extra store is within walking distance and the development of the extended site (a further 1.75 acres – not included in this offering) to provide a Lidl food store will further enhance the retail choice for local residents.
