Planning permission has been granted for a new Thai spa in the centre of Bath.
The former TSB premises on Quiet Street
The former TSB bank at 10 Quiet Street will become home to the third in the Thy Spa chain operated by UK Spa Ltd.
The company already has two successful Thy Spas in Oxford and Windsor.
In February, we reported that plans to turn the ground floor and basement of No. 10 into space for a Fireaway restaurant, and to convert the first and second floors from empty offices into two flats, had been withdrawn.
The bank closed its doors in 2022 and has been vacant ever since.
The new scheme, which Bath & North East Council planners approved last week, involves removing non-loadbearing partitions and putting in new partitions to form a new layout for spa treatments and massage rooms, along with changing, showering and toilet facilities, and a staff room and kitchen.
There will be changes to the shop front with new glazing after the boarded-up ATM is removed, and replacement signage.
Listed building consent has also been granted as the building is a Grade II*, while advertisement consent has been granted for a new hanging sign and hand-painted shop front signage.
