BEAUFORT HOUSE PBSA

YET ANOTHER APPLICATION FOR STUDENT ACCOMMODATION

Hot on the heels of the proposal to convert the former Maximum Motors building in Howell Road into purpose built student accommodation (see here) comes yet another application. This time conversion of the office building at 51 New North Road, known as Beaufort House, into a 107 bed PBSA in 23 flats.

In defence of our Neighbourhood Plan which seeks to ensure that “St James is a vibrant neighbourhood with a balanced and diverse community” please oppose this latest application. Deadline for submissions is 5 February 2023 and details can be found on the council website here.
