Hide AdIt follows a trend in recent years for more town-centre living – with former offices, shops and business premises being converted into flats – or using the space above ground-floor businesses as apartments.
In Chesterfield, premises such as the former magistrates court on West Bars have been converted into flats, while plans have recently been submitted to the borough council to convert the former sports bar off Holywell Cross in the town centre into flats. Condition permission has been granted to turn the bar, which was a former chapel, into nine apartments.
