PLANNING INFORMATION
The premises currently have a lawful use for offices (Use Class B1(a) and this use could therefore continue without the need for a further planning permission.
The site is on the edge of a residential area which restricts the possible alternative uses of the site. Potential uses, subject to obtaining planning permission and satisfying the necessary technical criteria such as access, parking and preservation of amenity for the adjoining residential propertied, would be residential or educational uses.
The site is located within the Blyth Town Centre (Bondicar Terrace) Conservation Area and any proposals for redevelopment of the site, or for alterations to the existing building to adapt it for a new use, would have to take into account the requirement to preserve and enhance the character and appearance of the Conservation Area and would need to be designed accordingly.
It is strongly recommended that any proposals for the site are discussed with the County Council's Development Management Team at an early stage.
