An application has been submitted to square off the building to the height of the tip of the current pyramid-topped roof.
If approved, the third floor – which will be set back from the others – will contain a one-bedroom flat, and the first and second floors will each contain a two-bedroom unit. All three apartments will have a south-facing balcony.
Permission has already been granted, given in March 2022, to change the use of the building from retail to a dental surgery.

Under the most recently submitted plans, the upper and lower ground floors will be retained as a dental surgery.
The new plans include a proposed ‘living wall’ and space for a piece of art, both on the west elevation.
The Bridging Island Plan – which sets the policies against which all planning decisions are made – introduces a ‘settlement hierarchy’ that establishes Les Quennevais as the island’s secondary urban centre.
