Lot 28 - Land with Potential
ONLINE AUCTION from 6th October-8th October 2026
A freehold parcel of land extending to approximately 225 sq m (2,420 sq ft / 0.056 acres), as shown edged red on the accompanying plan. The site is broadly rectangular, measuring approximately 24m in length and tapering from around 8m to 11m in width.
The land is presently laid out as a surfaced parking area and forms part of the setting and curtilage of the Grade II listed former George & Dragon Inn in Aysgarth. The inn has ceased trading and has been sold separately.
The seller has prepared an illustrative CGI showing the potential appearance of a traditional detached stone-built dwelling on the site. The CGI is provided for illustration only and does not constitute planning permission, listed building consent or confirmation that this, or any other form of development, will be permitted.
Important Property Information
The land is subject to historic planning conditions connected with the former George & Dragon Inn, including a condition requiring the land to remain available for use as the inn’s car park. Any alternative use, development or alteration will require the appropriate planning permissions and may require listed building consent.
The relevant planning decision, council correspondence and further information are included within the legal pack. Purchasers must satisfy themselves regarding the planning position, listed-building considerations, access, the effect of all restrictions and the prospects of any future consent before bidding.
Location
Aysgarth is a sought-after village within the Yorkshire Dales National Park, known for its countryside setting, waterfalls, walking and cycling routes, and access to Leyburn and the wider Dales.
Potential
A compact freehold holding in an attractive Yorkshire Dales setting. The CGI illustrates one possible long-term residential concept, with any development, alternative use or alteration remaining subject to the necessary planning, heritage and other consents.

If considering a mortgage, we advise that you inspect and consider the property carefully with your lender before bidding.
By setting a proxy bid, the system will automatically bid on your behalf to maintain your position as the highest bidder, up to your proxy bid amount. If you are outbid, you will be notified via email so you can opt to increase your bid if you so choose.
If two of more users place identical bids, the bid that was placed first takes precedence, and this includes proxy bids.
Another bidder placed an automatic proxy bid greater or equal to the bid you have just placed. You will need to bid again to stand a chance of winning.
