Clothing brand Seasalt Cornwall has submitted plans for a shop on Spring Gardens in the former Natwest building.

The popular clothing company has applied to High Peak Borough Council for changes to windows for 2 Spring Gardens.

The plans state the company is looking to ‘replace four existing timber window frames with new timber frame windows painted in dark blue, removing the window astragal bars and replacing the single panes with double glazing; re-profile masonry to follow window line and reinstating the original window rectangular shape that was modified when the old ATM was installed and then the hole infilled with stonework following the ATM removal’.

In a statement submitted with the application, Jon South from Stone And Shires Limited said: “The extent of the proposed work is not considered to impact upon the significance of the heritage asset, on the contrary, the proposed works have been carefully designed to preserve and enhance the special architectural and historic interest of 2 Spring Gardens within the Buxton Central Conservation Area.

Plans have been submitted to transform the windows in the former Natwest building in Spring Gardens with Seasalt Cornwall's names on the scale drawings.
