The project includes the conversion of the grade two-listed 15-17 Fulton Street mill and the erection of a five-storey building facing south off the A5054.

Floors one to three of the mill conversion, and floors one to five of the block would be reserved for hotel rooms, with floorspace provided for ancillary servicing.

There would be 32 bedrooms within the converted mill and 48 bedrooms in the new-build element.

The legal agreement requires the applicant to contribute a payment of £25,000 for a car parking survey and £25,000 for an active travel survey.

A spa with treatment rooms and a pool would be installed in the building’s basement.

Ground floor plans include a bar, restaurant space, and associated back and front-of-house facilities.

Seven car parking spaces will be provided for guests.

The hotel will provide accommodation for the under-construction Bramley Moore Dock Stadium, which is expected to host Everton FC’s games by August 2025.

The project team includes ERAP, West Coast Geomatics, and AMNI Transportation.
