The property is currently let to Butchers Salon (www.butcherssalon.com). The lease commenced February 2010 and expires February 2025. The current passing rent is £26,000 per annum and the most recent review date was February 2020. We are awaiting confirmation as to whether or not this has been settled. It is understood that the tenant is not currently in occupation and is marketing the lease for assignment.

The freehold interest is to be sold subject to the existing tenancy. There are 5 flats in the upper parts all of which have been sold off.
