Northern Gas Networks have a lease of an
existing Gas Governor House on Neasham Road from the Council which
has 47 years unexpired. The site is currently only accessed on foot
from Neasham Road with engineers and maintenance vehicles having to
park on Neasham Road in an unsafe manner. NGN wish to extend their
operational area with a new lease to allow the building to be
accessed from the rear. Their proposal is to form a new access
along the abandoned section of Levisham Lane (which was realigned
to allow a safer exit onto Neasham Road) so that vehicles can
access and park safely. This area should only need some gravel
overlaying as the former road should still be under the fallen
leaves and scrub that have accumulated. The proposed track is
through an area which has become wooded but it is outside the area
of the Brankin Moor Local Nature Reserve and there are no
significant trees which will need to be removed.
Rent £400 pa with 5 yearly reviews.
