PLANS which were submitted to turn a former nightclub and offices into a house in multiple occupation (HMO) have been withdrawn.

A change-of-use planning application was submitted to Wigan Council to convert the former Bar Eden property on Chapel Street in Tyldesley into an eight-bedroom HMO.

The plans, drawn up by applicant Adam Lipson, were received by the council in January and validated in February.

A neighbourhood consultation took place until March.

In a decision notice issued on April 1, case officer Jon Corcos acknowledged that the planning application had been withdrawn.
