IMAGES TAKEN NEAR TO
Cheriton Road, FOLKESTONE, CT19 5HG

Compared with Image, but seen from Julian Road’s junction with Cheriton Road, an extension to the original building is being erected.

It is situated on the corner of Julian Road, from where this photo was taken. The board belongs to the estate agents Barnet Ross, from whose website I discovered that the building was once a care home. As the board indicates, it was to be sold at auction. It was sold at auction for £325,000 having been advertised with a guide price of £295,000 http://www.barnettross.co.uk/details_display_order.php?adate=201402&page=17.html&id=4870361&displayOrder=17

Compared with Image, a small section of the unoccupied former care home has been demolished as the work of converting the building into flats continues. Planning permission has been approved, with conditions, by Folkestone and Hythe District Council under application number Y14/0834/SH for the “change of use and conversion of the former residential care home into 9 self-contained flats, including the erection of a rear extension and front glazed entrance porch, following the removal of existing rear extensions and fire escapes, together with other external alterations to the building”.

Compared with Image, now that the large skip has been removed, the full extent of the demolition can be seen. The unoccupied care home is being converted into flats.

Compared with Image, a vehicle has been parked in the grounds, further up the road, and is being loaded with branches, that have been cut off shrubs from the front of the building. The unoccupied care home is being converted into flats.

Compared with Image, but seen from another angle in Julian Road, the roof behind the new extension is being dismantled. Planning permission has been approved, with conditions, by Folkestone and Hythe District Council under application number Y14/0834/SH for the “change of use and conversion of the former residential care home into 9 self-contained flats, including the erection of a rear extension and front glazed entrance porch, following the removal of existing rear extensions and fire escapes, together with other external alterations to the building”.
