Bid for new Calderdale detached homes
Proposals to build two new Calderdale homes on land close to two listed buildings have been submitted to planners.
The site at land north west of The Lodge at Huddersfield Road in Brighouse, is close to Toothill Hall and its lodge - both of which are Grade II-listed.
But the site is one allocated for housing by Calderdale Council and the proposals for the two detached homes – each with detached garages and parking within each plot – will blend in, say supporting papers submitted by the agent for the application.
The new natural stone homes will be single storey with some accommodation in the roof spaces, and detailing, along with existing trees providing screening, will ensure the listed buildings and their setting will not be affected.


Living and main bedrooms will be on the ground floor with two further bedrooms on the first floor.
Outside, there will parking and turning within the site, which will be accessed from Toothill Lane, according to the application.
