Notes Grade II listed former hotel within the centre of Hexham. Following closure of the hotel, the building had last been occupied by a restaurant, although it has been completely out of use since 2013. Identified for redevelopment, with a sensitive conversion scheme being appropriate given the heritage context and location. Permission was granted in 2014 for alteration and conversion of the vacant building to create 12 flats and commercial units (14/01128/FUL). The proposed works include the provision of 2 retail units at ground-floor level and flats on the remainder of the ground-floor and across the two upper floors. Works commenced in 2014 and have slowly progressed. Subsequently, the residential aspect of the scheme was reduced to 8 flats following approval of a variation in 2019 (19/00240/VARYCO). This change also altered the nature of the retail space (Class A1 to A1/A3). To date, 4 units have been completed, with the remaining 4 conversions to be completed in the next five years.
