Replacement of Redundant Non-Residential Buildings with Dwellings
Replacement of a redundant non-residential building with a single dwelling may be permitted where it brings significant environmental benefits, provided the building is not listed and does not contribute importantly to heritage, appearance or character.
Favourable consideration will however be given to the replacement of a redundant non-residential building with a single dwelling, where the redevelopment proposed would bring significant environmental benefits and provided the building is not listed or otherwise makes an important contribution to the heritage, appearance or character of the locality.
