The specific site consisted of a detached 1970’s retail unit at ground floor level and Office accommodation on the first floor. A separate Dance Studio to a self-contained, single-story unit, and a dilapidated character store were to the rear of the site.
The site, located in the small market village of Lenham, lies at the foot of the North Downs and Pilgrim’s Way. The main building fronting Faversham Road had been destroyed by an extensive building fire. Our role was to produce a scheme for planning permission.
