Application to turn Leamington town centre bar into accomodation for young professionals and students or office space

But Moo owner Steve Smith says that even if planning permission is granted he has no intention of closing the bar or changing its use "in the foreseeable future" with the applications having been made when there were reports that businesses such as bars and pubs could be closed until the end of the year due to lockdown.

The bar, on the ground floor at 24 Russell Street, would be converted into residential space to match the multiple occupation flats above it or office space.
