A PLANNING application has been lodged to convert town centre offices into new apartments.
Applicants are seeking to convert the unused commercial offices at 6 Church Green West into new homes.
The proposed works include the addition of a side/rear extension and the conversion of the offices and existing residential apartments to reconfigured residential accommodation.
The proposed accommodation will comprise two 1 bed apartments and two 2 bed apartments. The scheme will retain existing ground floor commercial offices.
As part of the heritage impact assessment, developers said: "There will be no impact on the historic value of the application site as a result of the works proposed as part of this application; the property will still be associated with the 19th century development of the area around Church Green and will still be readable as one of the historic properties on the periphery of the green".
