To the rear there is a parking and loading area for the property and a small parcel in the north west corner that had previously been utilised for a local car
sales business. The property is currently let to a Charity on a flexible short term basis.

Planning
To help deliver the Council's regeneration objectives, the Council produced the 'Chatham Town Centre Masterplan' (Nov 2019) which is intended to sit alongside the new Local Plan and will inform proposed allocations. Positioned in the 'Waterfront Quarter' the Site is located in a focal area and is identified as suitable for retail and residential development, where storey heights of between 6-15 storeys would be supported.
