Planning
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 understand that the premises benefit from Class E 'Commercial Business and Service' use within the Use Classes Order 2020.
The property may have potential for other uses outside of Use Class E (STP).
Interested parties should make their own planning enquiries and satisfy themselves in this regard.

Accommodation
The property is a substantial, attractive brick-built period building with a distinctive vaulted roof, believed to have originally been used as a place of worship. It has more recently been fitted out to a high standard for office use, arranged over the ground and first floors.
The accommodation provides a good number of meeting rooms, along with open-plan areas, offering flexibility for a range of office configurations or other Class E uses. The property also benefits from original stained glass windows, which add further character to the space.
