Plans to convert a former snooker club and bar into flats have been tabled.
Developers Prestwich Estates Limited want to redevelop the former Rileys Snooker and Pool club, on Bury New Road, into nine apartments at ground and first-floor level.
The club, one of the most prominent buildings in Prestwich village, is directly opposite the Marks & Spencer food hall and was once a popular meeting place for snooker and pool players – and those watching televised sport. Documents submitted to Bury council say the ‘long vacancy’ of the building had left it ‘unsightly’.
