The former Halfway House pub in Old Meeting Street looks set to be refashioned and turned into new flats as part of plans by Birmingham-based developer KB1 Homes.

The plans include building a two-storey extension and converting the former pub into nine one-bed flats.

Just one parking space has been included in the application with developer KB1 Homes arguing the former pub is in a “highly sustainable” location but tenants would find “ample space” in Brett Street, Greswold Street and Old Meeting Street next to the Jesson Playing Fields.
