The large carpark along the North wall of the basin runs from The Victoria pub (closed) to the cottages by the church. The butty van is at one end of it. The parking enforcement notices say it's Glasson Dock Harbour Authority property. If you mean the carpark inside the marina itself, that seems an odd place to put flats, and is probably leased to Aquavista anyway. Where did you hear this rumour? It can't have been a bloke in a pub because they're shut! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also not on the list of planning applications for Lancaster City Council who it comes under, and both suggested sites are also in a Conservation Area that includes a Scheduled Monument, numerous listed buildings and many notable but unlisted properties. I think it's come from the bloke who would be in the pub but isn't because it's shut. The only other site that might make sense in Glasson is the wasteland/carpark next to the Dalton Arms, but again no planning has been applied for. I'll be interested to see what @sunny comes back with about the source of the rumour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBiscuits Posted January 2, 2021 Report Share Posted January 2, 2021 Without more information we can't really say anymore. Some fields further up the canal were up for sale in 2019 as a possible development site: https://www.abarnett.co.uk/property-details/rps_arm-GAR190525/ But that's not by the basin, it's the fields off Jeremy Lane, opposite the caravan park and the other side of the bridge.
