Details

The property comprised four retail units – two fronting the High Street and two facing the Shambles. The block was located in a prime location adjacent to Marks & Spencer. This property formed part of a larger High Street, Retail Portfolio to include: Sunderland, Consett, Wolverhampton, Portsmouth, Maidstone and Folkestone.

The property was part listed and lay within a Conservation Area. Part of the property was structurally unsound and the vacant unit was physically compromised.

The structural damage was investigated and remedied whilst the vacant unit was extended over a fire escape route which was then redirected to the rear of the building.

The vacant unit was let prior to the completion of the works. Once the works and lettings were concluded the property was sold.
