Situated in a prominent location in Royston town centre, this vacant site was acquired for development. It lies within the Royston Conservation Area and is surrounded by several listed buildings. The site had been identified as an opportunity for a landmark building in the Royston Town Centre Strategy.

Planning permission was granted following an appeal hearing. The residential accommodation is located above the ground-floor shop and is accessed via a separate staircase. The development comprises three two-bedroom flats and one one-bedroom flat, all designed with generous living areas.
