Plans for apartments on former bowling green look set to advance

Plans to build 29 one- and predominantly two-bed apartments on a disused bowling green, pavilion building and car park on Addison Street, Nottingham, look set to be given the green light.

Planning bosses at Nottingham City Council have given their backing to the scheme ahead of a planning committee meeting next Wednesday (October 19).

The application for the scheme was submitted back in April by Rayner Davies Architects. Unitech Plus is the developer behind the proposals.

Whilst the bowling green itself won’t be retained, the rectilinear and open feel of the site as a green square with buildings and mature vegetation to the perimeters is one of the key design concepts adopted in the proposals, says Rayner Davies. The Clubhouse building is Georgian and will be retained, refurbished and converted to apartments as part of the proposal, with new buildings behind the Bulwell Stone wall fronting Addison Street.
