In the application the developer said it is the intention, within the proposed change of use works, to retain as much as possible of the original features and structure of the building.
Externally to the street and north-east elevations, there will be no alterations other than replacing the damaged arched window adjacent to the tower and installing a new sign in the same location as the banks.
