Plans for former Lloyds building to progress this year

PROPOSED plans to convert the former Lloyds building at 190 Church Road into a bar/café with four residential flats are continuing during 2019.

The St George & Redfield Voice first reported on the development at the end of 2017. However in August last year we reported that the site’s developer IKON had gone out of business. Since then local residents have been in touch with us enquiring about the site’s progress.

A Bristol City Council spokesperson said: “Revised plans and an air quality assessment have recently been received and are currently under review. We will need to carry out consultations with interested

parties prior to any decision, so the case will not be determined until the new year.”

The development has drawn a mixture of public comments. Notably a submission from St George Community Network which ‘strongly supports’ the development. However the group raised concerns over the impact that late-night opening hours will have on noise and a request for further detail on delivery arrangements at the busy junction. Several comments raised concerns over parking, however there are also a number of comments expressing support for a new bar/café on Church Road.
