Description

An historic and substantial building occupying a prominent position in this popular market town and subject to a planning application for its residential use.

General Remarks - The Old National Boys School is a substantial stone building which occupies a prominent position within the town of Bishops Castle.

This former National School was erected by public subscription to commemorate the majority of The Viscount Clive on 5th November 1839.

. - A lot of pupils have passed through the doors since then and it is a very long time since the chalk board was last used on site.

.. - The building and yard are now in need of restoration and development and are the subject of a current planning application for their conversion into a single dwelling with garden courtyard and off road parking.

... - It is considered that the building remains capable of conversion into a single dwelling with an appropriate design scheme which preserves and enhances the existing building character, the surrounding conservation area and does not unduly harm residential amenity, highway safety and biodiversity.

Location - The building sits in a prominent position on Station Street, just a short walk across to the towns main street and all its local amenities. Bishops Castle is a historic market town in a beautiful area of South Shropshire with the towns of Shrewsbury and Ludlow providing a full range of services and access to the national road and rail network.

Proposed Plan - The building currently has a ground floor footprint of around 1500 square feet and stands within a walled courtyard which extends to about 0.1 of an acre. The current plan projects a gross external floor area of 1900 square feet of living accommodation but this includes a vast ground floor living room/diner and separate kitchen, all with vaulted ceilings, with two bedrooms and bathroom to the small two storey section. It is conceivable that the building could accommodate far more extensive living accommodation or indeed, have potential for conversion into two dwellings subject to further planning consent.

Services - Mains Water and electricity are believed to be on site. A private sealed drainage system has been proposed.
