The University of Gloucestershire has been granted planning permission to transform a former Debenhams department store into its new city campus.
In a meeting on Tuesday (March 1) Gloucester City Council’s Planning Committee unanimously approved the university’s plans to redevelop the city centre building in King’s Square into a learning space for its staff and students.
The university said committee members welcomed its application as a “positive way” to retain and re-purpose the 1930s art deco building.
