Plans to convert two storeys above a town centre shop into flats have been submitted.
Last week Copeland Council received an application by Finepoint Ltd to turn the first and second floors, at a property in King Street, occupied by Claire’s fashion accessory store into two one-bedroom flats.
According to the design and access statement: “49 King Street is a three-storey property, located in a pedestrianised area of Whitehaven town centre.
“The building is currently arranged as retail at ground-floor level and ancillary areas/storage at first and second-floor levels.
“Both apartments will be similar in layout, with bedroom and living spaces towards the front of the property and bathroom and kitchen spaces to the rear of the property.”

Application number: 4/20/2453/0F1
