Description

East Mon are undertaking a refurbishment of No 11 Beaufort Square. The Grade 2 listed property, located in the centre of Chepstow fronting the High Street, has been vacant for 12-18 months. The proposed development will see a material change of use of the first floor from Class A2 (Financial and Professional Services) to Class C3 (Dwellinghouse), to provide a one one-bedroom flat. The proposal is confined to the first floor. No alterations are proposed to the principal external elevations, and the existing windows, shop front and other external architectural features are to be retained unaltered. The first floor is recorded as having been in residential use at an earlier date before its more recent use as an estate agent's office (Class A2). Data via plota.co.uk

Checked on 30 September 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.
