Planning
The premises has historically benefitted from B1/B8 consent and it's felt would continue to suit operators within these use classes.
A new Use Classes Order (UCO) came into effect on 1st September 2020. Under the new UCO a new Use Class E was introduced to cover commercial, business and service uses. Use Class E encompasses A1, A2, A3, B1 and some D1 and D2 uses under the former UCO. We therefore believe that the premises may benefit from Class E 'Commercial Business and Service' use in part, within the Use Classes Order 2020.
Interested parties should make their own planning enquiries and satisfy themselves in this regard.
