DESCRIPTION Greenfoot Quarry is a hidden oasis within the local landscape. It incorporates a lake, areas of woodland and grassland and is home to a varied population of wildlife. It is a manageable block of land benefitting from two areas of off-road parking.

The former quarry borders the River Wear and the A689 road.

A public footpath runs along the southern boundary and there is a network of private pathways within the property which lead to numerous clearings which could be used for entertaining and also for diversification projects such as camping or glamping pods, subject to the necessary consents. This is an excellent opportunity to purchase a property with potential for a variety of amenity uses. 

ACCESS Greenfoot Quarry benefits from excellent double gated access directly off the A689 road to the north of the site and from the B6278 road to the southern boundary. 

ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGNATIONS Part of the site is classified as a site of special scientific interest due to its rare rock structure and it is also classed as a private Local Wildlife Site by Durham County Council.
