Under consideration

Planning committee

Decided by Salford Planning and Transportation Regulatory Panel on 18 Dec 2025. The council has not yet issued its decision notice.

Approved

As officers recommended.

Officers advised approval because the apartments, mixed-use space, design, amenity and transport impacts were considered acceptable, subject to conditions and obligations.
Two objections raised concerns about increased height, overdevelopment, character, daylight, traffic, parking and residents’ amenity; other comments sought swift bricks and heat-network provision.
The committee granted permission subject to conditions and authorised a Section 106 obligation covering viability clawback, contributions, monitoring and biodiversity management.

Site constraints 6

Adelphi Bexley Square conservation area conservation area

Demolition needs planning permission and permitted development is restricted.

The council must give weight to preserving or enhancing the area's character and appearance. Not every council has published its boundaries as open data.

Council document ↗

Article 4 direction

2018 HMO Article 4 Direction. Named permitted development rights are withdrawn here.

An Article 4 direction withdraws particular permitted development rights, so work that would normally need no application needs one here. Not every council has published its directions.

7 listed buildings within 150 m of the postcode pin

Nearest: Eight Bollards on West Side of St Philips Church, Grade II, about 13 m from the postcode pin · 2 Grade II*, 5 Grade II

The site itself is not listed. Listed building consent is needed for work that affects the special interest of a listed building, inside or out, on top of planning permission. Setting can be a consideration for buildings nearby; there is no fixed radius.

Checked on 11 October 2026. The pin for this application is the centre of its postcode rather than the building, so distances to nearby designations are measured from the postcode and can be out by the width of the postcode area.

A boundary can run through a site and the council holds the definitive record: confirm with the council before relying on this.
