Developers who want to demolish a garage and shed next to one of Bedminster’s oldest houses and build an eight-storey coal-black futuristic office building there instead have returned with a fresh attempt to get planning permission.
A second planning application has been submitted by DJP Property Holdings, based at Ham Green, near Pill, for a narrow plot of land that forms part of Rock Cottage, a large, listed early Victorian house at the Parson Street end of West Street in Bedminster.
Late last year, DJP surprised local residents in Bedminster by submitting three different applications for the site they bought early in 2022, which had a total of five different proposals for three different futuristic tall buildings on the site.
