FORMER PUB PROPOSALS LOOKED AT AGAIN AFTER HERITAGE CONCERNS

- ALEXANDER BROCK Local Democracy Reporter

Student flats block is back before planners

MAJOR proposals to build a student accommodation block on the former site of a city centre pub are to be considered again.

Developers have been seeking permission for a 16-storey building with 263 student bed spaces at the old Golden Eagle site in the heart of the city.

Those behind the scheme have said it would respect the site’s history and provide economic, social and environmental benefits.

But last month, members of Birmingham ‘s planning committee were troubled by heritage concerns and ultimately voted to refuse the proposals.

The plans are now set to be considered again at an upcoming planning meeting, with a council officer clarifying the heritage impact.
