A derelict building in Caerphilly town centre could be turned into flats and office space.
In its heyday many residents remember Manchester House, located just off Van Road, as a popular fashion store before transforming into a furniture shop in its later years. However, despite its history, the two-storey unit has become a vacant "eyesore", derelict for around eight years.
And in February during the rare red weather warning for Storm Eunice, residents began to fear for the building's safety as shards of glass fell from its windows onto the pavement below.
