Plans Submitted for Wheatsheaf Pub Redevelopment

Several proposals are underway in the UK to repurpose vacant or derelict buildings for residential and community use. In Diss, plans have been submitted to convert the historic Two Brewers pub into a single residential dwelling, following its closure in 2022. Meanwhile, Great Yarmouth's former Maritime House, which has been empty since 2020, may be transformed into nautical-themed holiday flats and a café after previous plans for a permanent museum were rejected. In Devizes, the Wiltshire Museum aims to relocate to the derelict Devizes Assize Court building, with a funding application planned for 2025. Additionally, plans to demolish The Wheatsheaf pub in Peterborough and replace it with specialized supported housing for adults with disabilities are in motion, addressing a significant demand for such accommodation in the area. These initiatives reflect a broader trend of revitalizing unused spaces to meet community needs.
