The application also includes associated listed building consent applications.

The proposed plans follow what many businesses in the city centre have been doing over recent years and that is turning former retail space on the upper floors into residential space.

Philip Morris & Son was established in Hereford as an ironmongers in 1845. Whilst true to its roots and very much still a family business Philip Morris & Son has developed into the thriving business of today encompassing a physical department store and an online website.
