SUBSTANTIAL offers are invited for a well-known Lydney car garage which has gone up for sale.

Thompson and Thompson, at Cross Hands on Highfield Road, have been selling vehicles and refuelling passing motorists for the last 65 years.

The site, which is in almost three acres, also has outline planning permission for a residential development of 21 properties and a convenience store.

Kurt Wyman, from marketing agents Kurt Wyman Surveyors, said: "This is an exciting site to bring to the market. It is renowned throughout the area and benefits from a range of good quality flexible buildings on a substantial site that will suit both owner occupiers and commercial property investors.

"Alternatively it has an outline planning consent for residential use which will be of interest to residential developers. Sites of this nature very rarely come to the market and both ourselves and our joint agents Kevin J Toombs Chartered Surveyors are experiencing some serious early interest from owner occupiers, retailers, institutional type users, and developers."
