The House of Fraser store in Lincoln is to be demolished and replaced by a hotel and retail scheme.
Plans have just been approved by City of Lincoln Council to convert the four-storey building in Lincoln’s High Street into a 150-bedroom four-star hotel with retail and leisure space on the ground floor.
A council document published ahead of the meeting said: "The proposals represent an opportunity to address an identified need for a lifestyle hotel and mixed-use scheme of the highest quality at a prominent location in the heart of the city centre and conservation area, whilst securing a long term future for this prominent site and impacting positively on the city centre economy.”
