A FORMER gift shop in Colliergate, York, could become an estate agents.

A planning application has been submitted for alterations to be made to the Grade II-listed unit that was previously occupied by Just Gifts of York.

A statement says Stephensons Estate Agents, which is currently based in a building on the opposite side of the road, is planning to move into the former shop.

The plans include installing gas central heating, replacing lights, carpets and internal doors and alterations to change the building into an office suitable for its new owners.
