Proposed Development

Change of use of ground floor and basement from Car Garage (B2) to a Restaurant (A3) including erection of rear external flue.

Osborne Planning's Role

Osborne Planning advised the client on the feasibility of converting a vehicle garage and MOT (B2) to a urban style restaurant (A3 use class). Osborne Planning conducted a feasibility assessment and advised the client that there was a good chance to create a restaurant on this location and the loss of the existing B2 unit was not a concern. We were instructed to produce the planning documents and architectural drawings. We submitted the application and liaised with Hackney Council regarding the existing use and proposed use, as well as the extraction flue at the rear. The application was granted planning permission and we subsequently were instructed to produce the building regulations and liaise with Building Control.
