A 225-year-old building in Preston city centre which functioned as townhouses for just the first few decades of its existence could be returned to its residential roots after nearly two centuries.
Plans have been submitted to convert the Grade II-listed structure on Chapel Street – which was in use as solicitors office until 18 months ago – into ten apartments. The blueprint would involve the extensive refurbishment of the building, as well as some demolition work in order to restore it to the original footprint it occupied when it was constructed as a pair of domestic properties off Winckley Square.
To that end, it is proposed to make the reinstatement of the historic fabric of the building and its “highly significant heritage elements” a priority. Examples include the reintroduction of timber sash windows and the original pattern of openings, chimney breasts and staircases. Partition walls would be replaced and historic party walls either reinstated or retained.
