The town centre development will deliver 28 much-needed, well-designed homes, improve the existing car park, and create new maker-space units for retail entrepreneurs.
Tendring District Council’s planning committee granted permission for the development in March 2025.
The scheme sets the stage for the transformation of the former Carnarvon House site and the existing High Street car park on Carnarvon Road, as part of the planned new Clacton Civic Quarter.
The Civic Quarter will also include a new publicly accessible urban realm, featuring a range of hard and soft landscaping elements.
The wider plans include the redevelopment of the current Clacton Library site. Work is underway to develop a strategy for the civic spaces ahead of completion. Organisations interested in using the spaces should contact regeneration@tendringdc.gov.uk
