RESORT'S REDUNDANT STABLES BLOCK SET TO MAKE WAY FOR HOUSING DEVELOPMENT

Free of bats - the former stables off Sea View Street, Cleethorpes


WORK could start soon on proposed redevelopment of a  former stables block in Cleethorpes.

Michael Wade Construction has earmarked the site at the rear of 71-73 Sea View Street for seven two-storey houses, plus an access road, parking and a storage area for bins.

The project had been held up partly pending clarification on drainage arrangements and partly to establish whether the redundant stables might be home to bats or nesting birds, such as swallows, swifts or house sparrows.

However, there were no hitches, so the scheme has been formally granted planning consent.

The ecological survey was conducted by a Hull-based firm, Crow Consulting, whose team inspected  the buildings and monitored the site both by day and at dusk.

Although flypasts of both bats and birds were detected in the vicinity, the consultancy reported no sign of breeding nor roosting.
