New use for banking hall on Manchester Road is approved

770 Manchester Road is a former Lloyds Bank and a first floor apartment, and is currently vacant. Last year Javaid Bostan submitted a planning application to divide the building to create three shop units - a development that would include an extension to the building and see a completely new frontage installed. The first floor would be used as storage space for the shops. There is a small car park to the rear of the building, and on street parking spaces - and on street parking spaces in front of it. Describing the changes to the building, planning officers said: “Overall the proposed changes are considered to be an improvement on the character and appearance of this building and will have a positive impact on the built environment.”
