Church to be turned back into snooker hall

Plans to turn a church back into a pool and snooker hall have been approved.

The Potters House Church in Alexander Road, near the junction with Newland Avenue in Hull, was previously a snooker venue prior to becoming a place of worship.

The Monica Snooker Hall was a members only club but closed in 2020.

Designs submitted to Hull City Council show the return of the club signage on the front of the building.

According to documents seen by the Local Democracy Reporting Service, the council stipulates cycle storage facilities must be provided and work must begin within three years.
