Following the closure of the psychiatric hospital in the 1990s the building has lain empty.”
The statement added: “The proposed building is comparable in scale to the existing Linden House and outline permission building. It is unlikely therefore that any overbearing impact would be caused to neighbouring residents.”
The plan is also for 17 car parking spaces and 20 bicycle spaces.
