FORMER Ministry of Defence land in Little Leigh has been declared surplus to requirements and offered back to former owners.

The Little Leigh Depot, in Willow Green Lane and across the River Weaver from the Riverside Inn, has been listed for sale by the government.

In accordance with ‘The Crichel Down Rules’, when the MoD decide land is no longer needed – and has not materially changed under its ownership – it is offered back to the former owner at market value.

Any previous owners can check the site at gva.co.uk/14745 and contact the MoD’s agents GVA by Sunday, March 24.

If no representation is received by then, the land will be placed on the open market.
