844dcfebad96ff741f99cd043492c3c393750b835465beb8d9af3606a157460e notes Former council offices in the town centre which offer opportunity for redevelopment through conversion. Development would have to carefully consider the designation as a Grade II listed building. Permission for development has been granted for 18 homes (17/00884/FUL). This project involves conversion of the listed building to provide 13 self-contained residential apartments alongside development of new-build dormer bungalows. Development is yet to start but is expected to be finished within the next 5 years. A relatively high density is considered to be appropriate, recognising that the majority of the units will be provided through conversion to flats. 2019-12-17
cb139644e525799a8393df2b26a1a23e30d9461aef9ddb66a64dcb80f9c5077c notes 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. 2020-12-17

Council owned site in town centre location which offers opportunity for redevelopment. A yield at a relatively high density is considered to be appropriate, reflecting conversion of the existing listed building. https://www.northumberland.gov.uk/NorthumberlandCountyCouncil/media/Planning-and-Building/planning%20policy/Studies%20and%20Evidence%20Reports/Housing%20Studies/1.%20SHLAA/Appendix-G-SHLAA-Sites-Summary-Assessment-Schedule.pdf 2018-12-31
ffdff084c0f9d35704cb076831f597a1dceac380ee72234fb58f4e93e646c076 notes 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.

Subsequently, a revised scheme, just focussed on the listed building conversion to create 12 apartments, has since been permitted (19/00692/FUL). This does not include any new-build aspect. Both permissions were concurrently extant, meaning either could be delivered. However, the developer has recently commenced on the revised scheme for 12 units. The first units were completed in 2020/21, with the remained to follow in 2021/22. NB - the development of bungalows to the rear of the site (from the original 2017 application) has since been subject to a separate proposal and application (18/04456/FUL). This project is now identified as a discreet small site (11021). 2021-12-17
