A FIVE-storey extension to a Haghill flat — by filling in a gap between tenements — is being proposed.

A disused barber’s shop at 16 Aberfeldy Street would be demolished and new accommodation provided, linked to the neighbouring ground floor apartment at 12 Aberfeldy Street.

A design document submitted with the planning application states: “The proposed extension would fill the gap between the two adjacent tenement blocks.

“Accommodation would be provided over five floors. The ground floor would contain a lounge.

“Each of the remaining four floors would contain a bedroom and an en-suite shower room. The upper floor would have a small, recessed balcony.”

The resulting property would have five bedrooms.

The proposal is pending assessment by Glasgow planners.
