No amendments to the Listed Building, but amendments to Block 2 (in the curtilage) including including minor widening of the building line to change the 2 x 2 bed flats to a pair of 3 bed semi-detached houses, amendments to the roof including two rear dormers, two front roof lights. In addition of minor amendments to the car park, location of bike and bin stores and boundary treatments.
