Plans have been submitted to use vacant land on the outskirts of Rotherham town centre
The application submitted by local developer EV Waddington LTD outlines plans for four employment units comprising 2,175 square metres located off Brinsworth Street
The site comprising 0.9 hectares of land located behind the site of the former Liquid & Envy nightclub has most recently been used as a car park after temporary consent was granted in October 2013
Access is proposed to be taken from the existing site access at Brinsworth Street which runs parallel to the A630
A design and access statement accompanying the application said: โAn employment use is considered to be the best use for the subject site and will bring employment and regeneration to the location.
โIt is considered that the development of the subject site will also be a catalyst to the redevelopment of the remaining parts of MU9, and will assist in bringing this land into a prosperous economic use.โ
Liquid & Envy nightclub closed in 2012 due to a decline in trade and was later demolished in 2015
