UK planning approvals for building reuses

Overview

Planning authorities in the United Kingdom have issued various decisions regarding the conversion of existing structures for new uses.

In Bath and North East Somerset, officials approved the redevelopment of a mid-1960s Brutalist building, the former Catholic Church of the Good Shepherd, into a day nursery and office space. In Narberth, Pembrokeshire planners approved a revised application to convert an architect’s former studio into a long-term residential unit.

More recently, Pembrokeshire planners refused a second application to convert the Drovers Arms in Puncheston into three flats, following objections regarding the loss of community facilities and drainage concerns. Conversely, in Essex, Uttlesford District Council approved plans to transform the Grade II listed Feathers Inn into a nursery, despite local concerns regarding traffic and parking.
