More apartments planned as firm outgrows historic home
Sunderland Echo
|August 11, 2025
Plans for more apartments at a historic former school building have been submitted to council development bosses.
Sunderland City Council's planning department has received an application for the former Simpson Street School site in the Deptford area.
The Victorian school opened in 1867 as Deptford Yard Church of England School and had various guises as a school over the decades before finally closing in July, 1961, with the site later used as artists' studios.
New road infrastructure works in the area, as part of the Sunderland Strategic Transport Corridor project, have since opened up space around the site giving it a more prominent position along the route to the city centre.
