PLANS to convert office space into a four-bedroom apartment have been approved.

The application had been submitted to Lichfield District Council for the lower ground and ground floor of Minster House on Minster Pool Walk.

The changes to the Grade II listed building would see the removal of modern stud walls to create a new open-plan kitchen and dining area.

A planning statement added:

> "Alterations to the exterior are limited. The only proposed change is the removal of the non-original timber shutters at lower ground floor level. These shutters are in a poor state of repair and no longer fit for purpose. They will be replaced with surface-mounted aluminium security shutters, finished in a colour to match the existing painted render.  
>  
> "Internally, the principal historic fabric of the building will remain unaltered, preserving its proportions, layout and materials.  
>  
> "Where existing structural openings require closure as part of the proposals, they will be infilled using lightweight, surface-mounted stud partitions. These interventions are fully reversible and can be removed in the future without harm to the historic fabric."
