Grosvenor Hotel near Bristol Temple Meads to finally be demolished

The owner of a fire-damaged derelict hotel opposite Temple Meads station has asked for permission to finally demolish it.

Nimish Popat, whose company owns the former Grosvenor Hotel on Temple Way, was issued with a court order to make the building safe within five weeks. The order ran out on Tuesday this week, but a planning application has been submitted requesting the council’s consent to demolish the landmark building anyway.

Popat’s firm, Earlcloud Ltd, was given an order from Bristol Magistrates' Court to make the building safe after Bristol City Council took the firm to court telling magistrates the building was dangerous and its parlous state was disrupting the area around it.
