PLANS to convert a sports and social club in Elsecar into a new nursery and daycare centre have been submitted to the council.
If approved, the Cobcar Sports and Social Club, on Cobcar Street, will be at the heart of the plans.
Internal reconfiguration of the existing building to provide classrooms, offices, and ancillary accommodation will commence if plans are deemed acceptable.
A report states: “The proposed scheme has been developed to reflect the character of the local area and has evolved from a detailed study of the existing site characteristics, materiality and surrounding context along Cobcar Street.
“A range of high quality materials have been utilised to complement the material palette of the existing property and are sympathetic to the surrounding context.
“It is intended that the local community will enjoy the positive impacts of the proposal, which will revitalise an existing building that is currently vacant and in need of redevelopment and will provide a much needed nursery and daycare centre that will help to support the local community of Elsecar.”
Public consultation ends on August 19.
