Last week saw a new development for a proposal to construct “high quality dwellings” in a four storey apartment block in Falkirk town centre which had been stuck in the planning process for over a year.

Dunblane-based Erskine Court Ltd lodged an application on February 23, 2023 to construct 10 flatted dwellings and associated development at 109 Cockburn Street, Falkirk.

However the applicant decided to withdraw the proposal on Thursday, November 14.

The documents state: “The proposed site is under the same ownership as Erskine Church, which was purchased by the Fyyfe family along with the church. The existing cottage on the site was built around the late 19th Century and is of Victorian style.

“Its materials are traditional stone and slate.”
