Overview of the proposal
What - The proposed regeneration of an old paper mill and surrounding area
The Outline Planning Application that was submitted for Papyrus Mill was for a high quality, mixed-use development comprising new homes, office space and substantial open space in a landscaped setting.
Where - Newton Kyme in North Yorkshire
The proposed development will be on the site of the former Papyrus Works near Newton Kyme, North Yorkshire.
When - A planning application was refused in July 2006
A planning application for the main development was submitted to Selby Council in August 2005 but was refused in July 2006. CEG is now considering submitting a revised application.
Why - To enhance aesthetics and increase level of amenities to the community
The site of the former Papyrus Works is currently derelict and any redevelopment on this land would dramatically enhance the aesthetics of the local environment.
Who - Commercial Estates Group is behind the project
Commercial Estates Group (CEG) is the company promoting the redevelopment. We have a track record of managing, investing in and developing property, and of turning derelict brownfield sites into productive use.
