Ex-BT building set to be converted into 99 flats

Telecom House in Hanley was previously a base for BT staff and despite efforts to find new tenants it is now completely empty.

TT Group, which owns the seven-storey building in Trinity Street, has now submitted plans to convert it into residential accommodation.

The proposals would involve a mix of studio flats and one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments, along with secure bike storage and a recycling area.

But the building would be a 'car free' development, with only two accessible parking spaces for visitors on-site. TT Group is seeking prior approval for the plans from Stoke-on-Trent City Council - full planning permission is not required for residential conversions.
