This retrospective application sought permission for the renovation of existing workshops and garages at Heathfield Yard, Patrick Street, Peel, to create private lock-up storage units. The site previously contained three double-fronted workshops. The works converted these into seven single units with a lower roof. The external footprint remained the same, but additional internal walling was inserted and the three original doors were replaced with seven single doors. The Planning Committee permitted the application on 13 September 2005, in line with the officer's recommendation.

The Planning Committee permitted the retrospective application. The works retained the same external footprint as the original workshops, with changes limited to internal subdivision and replacement of three double doors with seven single doors, along with a lower roof profile.
