The site is B Listed and will require listed building consent as part of any planning permission application. As the site is also situated within the Grange Conservation Area any development, including change of use, will have to preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the area, which is identified in the Grange Conservation Area Character Appraisal.
The mature trees are also important features and, whilst not protected by Tree Preservation Orders, are protected as being in the Conservation Area.
There is good potential for the change of use to residential apartments providing the alterations preserve the character of the listed building. There is limited scope for other new buildings due to site constraints and listed building status.
