An historic Grade II-listed building which was once used to shelter vulnerable children in Victorian times could be transformed into classrooms for students attending Liverpool Hope University.
The townhouse in Islington Square, which dates back to the 1830s and was formerly home to the Liverpool Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, was last used as an NHS medical centre before being purchased by the university in 2017.
An application has now been submitted to Liverpool City Council for the building to be converted into an education facility provide an additional 9074 ftsq of teaching space within the Liverpool Hope University Creative Campus.
