PROPOSALS to transform the former Topps Tiles store in Greenock into an 80-seater restaurant are being considered by Inverclyde Council planners.

A 'change of use' application outlining plans to turn the empty Container Way premises into a brand new restaurant has been lodged with the local authority.

If the application is approved, new windows and doors would be installed at the restaurant, as well as toilets, a kitchen and space to prepare and store food.

The plans indicate that the new premises would have both booth and table seating. 

The existing car park, which has enough space for around 15 vehicles, would be unchanged. 

The documents submitted alongside the application do not indicate who will be running the premises.
