Development area "For Sale": York area




Image by Shapesoftime

The old garage building stands alone at the intersection of the York, Pocklington and Driffield roads in the Vale of York. The For Sale notice says " Garage and Development Land: Planning for extension and residential, (other potential uses STPP) ". (STPP = "subject to planning permission")

Who will remember it's modest grace? Brick-bulit with a concrete beam supporting the lovely arched gable itself topped with stone; and the sheer utility of the curved corrugated iron roof - an industrial classic. And the flat spaces around that it defines; will they continue to reflect the sounds and smells caught within its dank interior after seventy (?) years grappling with the internal combustion engines of croaking cars and retching coaches taxed by the 1:6 steepness of nearby Garaby's ice age scarp?
