Location
Darlington is a strong retail centre with a resident population of around 98,000. The town lies approximately 20 miles south of Durham and 17 miles west of Middlesbrough and enjoys an extensive catchment. The town lies adjacent to the A1(M) Motorway and Darlington Railway Station lies on the East Coast Main Line. Five miles east of the town centre is Durham Tees Valley Airport.
Much of the prime retail core of the town along Northgate, onto High Row along Post House Wynd and Skinnergate, is pedestrianised. There is a mix of traditional shopping and modern retail centres such as The Cornmill Centre and Queen Street Centre. Many national and regional multiples are represented in the town.
The town has a well-established weekly outdoor market and an indoor market.
Post House Wynd forms a pedestrianised link between Skinnergate and High Row with the eastern end being close to Market Place. Post House Wynd is home to a variety of independent retailers.
Description
The property comprises a two-storey mid-terraced building of brick construction under a tile covered pitched roof, with mineral felt covered flat roof to the rear. It benefits from a traditional, single glazed shop front.
Internally, the property has most recently been occupied as a café, and benefits from a servery to the front, with spacious seating area to the rear. It has a laminate floor, plastered walls and suspended ceiling with integral lighting and air handling units. To the rear is a commercial kitchen, with non-slip flooring and PVC lined walls and ceiling. To the first floor is an office and w.c.'s.
