A former Knowsley fire station could become retirement flats under new plans.
A planning application was submitted to Knowsley Council by developer McCarthy Stone to convert the site on Huyton Lane, which used to be home to an ambulance and fire station, into 53 retirement flats.
According to documents submitted as part of the application, the flats would be “low maintenance private apartments” catering to the “middle market.” Plans involve the construction of a four-storey L-shaped building at the site, housing a combination of one and two-bedroom apartments, and would include 22 parking spaces and an outdoor communal area.
