A DISUSED reservoir at Kempsey, near Worcester, is being auctioned off with the possibility of turning it into a Grand Design-style home.

The concrete reservoir on Stonehall Common is being sold off by Severn Trent Water via agents Lambert Smith Hampton, who will be holding an online auction for the property.

According to the agents' description, it is "an earth covered, above ground redundant reservoir constructed of reinforced concrete that would offer strong potential for innovative conversion to alternative uses, including Grand Design style conversion to residential or holiday accommodation use".

The site is not located in a Green Belt or an Area of Outstanding Beauty, nor is it affected by a statutory nature conservation or heritage designation.

The property is located just to the west of Worcester Road near Stonehall Farm. The guide price for the auction is £10,000.
