Plans for the redevelopment of the former Humberside Police station on Prince’s Road in Cleethorpes into new housing are facing potential rejection, as advised by council officials. The site, which was deserted by the police force in 2020 after approximately 90 years of operation, is projected to undergo partial demolition to make way for 21 new dwellings, a mixture of ten flats and 11 houses. The recommendation for rejection from North East Lincolnshire Council is based on worries about the flood risk that the proposed development could pose. This story was derived from original reporting by the BBC.
