Ground floor of building at site of vacant Lake District museum could be restaurant
THE ground floor of a proposed two storey building at the site of a vacant Lake District museum could be turned into either a restaurant or hot food takeaway. The planning application is for the former Keswick Mining Museum at Otley House, Otley Road, in Keswick, and the application includes a request for planning permission for three local needs residential flats on the first floor. In addition it requests full planning permission for associated access, parking, hard and soft landscaping and ancillary structures. According to a planning statement the museum housed a private collection of largely Cumbrian artefacts and it closed in 2013 when the owner retired and the collection was sold. It states: 'The site is currently vacant and currently falling into a state of disrepair. The building is single storey, slightly elevated above the street and finished in white render.' The report adds: 'The existing building has reached the end of its useful life and is proposed to be demolished and the site cleared, except for the large sycamore tree to make way for the new proposal. 'The layout has been primarily dictated by the need to preserve the existing tree. As can be seen from the proposed site plan, the new building footprint is significantly less of an impact on the root protection area associated with the tree. 'The number of proposed apartments is directly related to the number of car parking spaces that can be accommodated on the site without compromising the size of the restaurant area required by potential occupiers. 'The restaurant entrance is required to face the high street to maximise visibility for potential customers. 'The apartments at first floor have been arranged to maximise their frontage onto Bank Street and Otley Road. This naturally positions the vertical access core to the rear of the site in the north-west corner. 'In order to achieve a designated parking space for each of the apartments, the ground floor has been set inbound of the apartments above in front of the residential entrance.' The planning application is currently being considered by planners at the Lake District National Park Authority.
