Notes Vacant council-owned buildings within Berwick town centre. The building formerly hosted a learning facility but lay derelict for a number of years following closure. Conversion of the existing building is considered the most appropriate method of bringing the site back into use. It had been understood that the site was not available for residential conversion, with community uses being preferred, but this position has recently changed. An application for conversion of the building to create 9 flats, with construction of 1 further new-build house and garage block to rear, was submitted and approved in July 2023 (21/02292/FUL). Subsequently, a revised application for 7 units, from the conversion of the existing building to 5 dwellings and construction of two new-build properties to the rear was permitted in November 2025 (24/03631/FUL). Either scheme could be delivered. Whilst yet to commence, it is considered that the overall scheme of between 7 and 10 units is deliverable within the next five years. Facts
