An Ormskirk 'eyesore' could be refurbished as part of ambitious proposals to create 55 apartments near to Ormskirk town centre.
The former Ormskirk College on Hants Lane - the old cottage hospital - has been empty in recent years; the council had said it wanted to reserve the site for light industry but it seems there's been a U turn.
The new application also involves converting the former Learning Centre, which fronts Derby Street and sits on the same plot of land - into accommodation.
Plans show the front part of the building at Hants Lane is predominantly single storey; three outriggers within the courtyard area which would be demolished. A parcel drop off point would be included and there would be room for a mobile hairdresser/community care and recreation room.
The ground floor will provide 21 apartments including 11 one-bed apartments, 10 two-bed apartments, nine of which will be elderly/accessible.
The first floor will provide 13 apartments, which will include eight one-bed apartments (two accessible), three two-bed apartments and two three bed-apartments, while the second floor will provide nine apartments.
The Derby Street development features a new pharmacy, three ground floor apartments, which would include two one-bed apartments and one two-bed apartment, one of which will be elderly accessible. The first floor will have five apartments including two one-bed apartments, one two-bed apartment and two three-bed apartments, one being elderly/accessible. The second floor will have four apartments, including three one-bed apartments and one two-bed apartment.
