Change of use of shop to residential


Planning permission has been granted on appeal for the change of use of a vacant retail unit to residential, in the village centre of Thames Ditton, Surrey.

The Council objected to the change of use on the grounds of a loss of a shop in the defined village centre. We demonstrated to the Inspector that the marginal location of the shop and the limitations of the listed building meant that it had proven unviable to let. The Inspector agreed that the change of use would not be harmful to the retail environment of the village.
