The Design Process
The site was acquired from Manchester Metropolitan University in 2015. Beyond this point, meetings were held with the councilâ’s planning officers, Historic England and Places Matter to develop the scheme which involved a change of use from further educational use to mixed use residential. Full planning and listed building consent was granted at the planning committee in July 2016.
