Plans for a brand-new residential development on a former pub site in Stoke-on-Trent have been submitted to the local council.

Haleem Enterprises has submitted a planning application for the "erection of four two-bedroomed residential dwellings together with two two-bedroomed residential apartments" on the former Red Lion pub site, on Ruxley Road.

The Red Lion closed in December 2016 and after falling into a state of disrepair, was demolished two years later and the site has been vacant ever since.

A total of 12 parking spaces are proposed, including two EV bays and a disabled space, as well as ten cycle spaces.

A Design and Access Statement, submitted as part of the application, states: "The proposed development makes use of a brownfield site that has suffered neglect over recent years.

"The development would provide much needed good quality residential accommodation required within the locality."

The full planning application can be viewed here.
