Clifton Cinema update: Telford Investments Ltd - the same company applied to demolish it) has now applied to "modify, modernise and subdivide the existing retail unit", form a car park and change the site to E-class use. https://secure.telford.gov.uk/planning/pa-applicationsummary.aspx?applicationnumber=TA/2020/1441 #wellington #wrekin #planning

"E class" is news to me (I was used to the A/B/C/D system of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planning_use_classes_in_England ) but apparently that's because it's news to everyone - it only came in in September. https://www.planninggeek.co.uk/use-class/use-class-e-commercial-business-and-service/

Part of the company's justification for previously wanting to demolish the building was that it had failed to sell the building/site as is and as a whole, so perhaps "subdivision" is the key word there? *

* - this is conjecture on my part. I await with interest the full planning documents; little more, besides the outline that I screengrabbed at the start of this thread, is available at the moment.
