Potential Conversion
A Pre-Planning Enquiry has been made to Bradford Council in respect of possible conversion of the building to residential use. The response includes this conclusion:
''The proposal for a residential use of this Grade 2 listed building would be supported by officers, securing a sustainable long-term use without causing any harm to the significance of the heritage asset and the character of the Ilkley Conservation Area. It appears to provide suitable accommodation for future occupants, but there is some concern for neighbour's amenity in terms of overlooking and loss of privacy, which should be explored before submitting a formal application''
