PLANS are under way to transform the empty former Bar Non nightclub site and bring it back into use.

Former nightclub site to be given new lease of life

It's part of the ongoing regeneration taking place in Southport town centre with work taking place to bring new life into several empty buildings.

Work is taking place in Southport Market Quarter, at Southport Enterprise Arcade, the former Debenhams building, the former Leo's Bar site, The Garrick, Albany Buildings and more.

A planning application has now been submitted to Sefton Council to sub-divide the three storey building at 4-8 Waverley Street in Southport.

It would involve a partial change of use of the existing nightclub to form five separate units.

This would include four new units and the retention of one for use as a nightclub.
