Part of a stone-built terrace within Spittal, this property was once home of The Galleon public house, but it has been vacant for a number of years. The building is currently in a poor state of repair and largely derelict, so requires investment in order to make it habitable. Identified as an opportunity to provide new housing within an existing terrace of dwellings. This is likely to be through a sensitive conversion. Although not listed, the building is over 150 years old and does have a degree of heritage significance. An application for extensive redevelopment of the building to provide 7 apartments was submitted in 2020, but has since been withdrawn (20/03015/FUL). Despite this, the building is considered to offer an excellent opportunity for urban conversion project, bringing a derelict, uninhabitable building back into use. Subsequently, a revised application for conversion of the building into 4 flats was permitted in 2022 (21/01566/FUL). Now classified as a 'small site' in the SHLAA and the site falls below the threshold required for inclusion on the Brownfield Land Register.
