Plans to convert old Crewe town centre office space above a closed down clothing shop into new 25 apartments have been given the green light.

Applicant, Mr Matt Peddle, of Premier Living Homes Ltd, had applied for prior approval for a change of use of the first and second floors of Burford House, Prince Albert Street.

Premier Living Homes will transform the former offices into new 25 residential units, with 12 flats on the first floor and 13 on the second floor.

A Cheshire East planning officer said: "The proposal is deemed to adhere with the requirements of Class MA, Schedule two, part three of the Town and Country Planning Order 2025, subject to conditions.

No plans were submitted for the ground floor of Burford House, occupied by Select Fashion until July 2024, with the unit set to remain for commercial use (Ryan Parker).

"As such prior approval is not required."
