A planning application for a student accommodation development in Edinburgh’s Canongate has been given the green light, following an appeal by property developers to the Scottish Government.
Summix (CGE) Developments and S Harrison have been granted permission for the partial demolition of existing buildings and the delivery of buildings on the site that was once part of the 19th century gasworks at 179A Canongate.
The planning application was initially refused by the City of Edinburgh Council in August.
