Grade II listed former local authority offices in the town centre. The building is now surplus, vacant and offers opportunity for redevelopment through conversion. A relatively high density is considered to be appropriate, recognising the location within central Morpeth and likelihood of a conversion to flats. An initial application for 17 dwellings, provided through a combination of conversation and new-build development, was refused and dismissed on appeal (17/00884/FUL.). After this, two alternative schemes have recently been permitted. The first is for alteration and conversion of the listed building to 13 flats, alongside construction of 4 new dwellings on land to the rear. A revised scheme, just focussed on conversion, this time to create 12 apartments, has since followed (19/00692/FUL). This supersedes a number of other planning permissions secured in earlier years. This includes a scheme for conversion of the listed building to 13 flats, demolition of outbuildings and construction of 4 new dwellings (18/00336/FUL). Both permissions currently remain extant, either of which could be delivered. Depending on which scheme is progressed either 12 or 17 units could be delivered on completion. Development is yet to start but, whichever scheme is progress is expected to be finished within the next 5 years.
