Plans have been unveiled to redevelop the north side of Bishop Auckland’s Market Place with a 60-bedroom hotel.
Led by regeneration charity The Auckland Project (TAP), bosses say the scheme will replace the derelict Queens Head, Postchaise and Monaco buildings, creating up to 95 jobs, including 65 construction positions and 30 operational roles.
They add the development will create career opportunities for graduates of the town’s new Bishop Auckland College hospitality training school, which opened in the historic McIntyre building last year.
