Plans have been submitted for almost 40 apartments and a number of townhouses in a Grade II listed building in Sheffield.

The scheme would convert The Mount and neighbouring buildings on Glossop Road into 39 residential apartments and eight townhouses.

The plans also include the provision of internal and external parking, as well as associated landscaping.

Planning officers have until 18 March to make a decision on the project.

It was built by local architect William Flockton around 1830, with later additions including a four-storey office annexe, according to the Local Democracy Reporting Service.
