A NEW beauty school could open in Bolton town centre.

Plans for a beauty, massage and barbering further education training centre have been revealed.

Offices in Bark Street would be converted if the application, submitted by SCC Beauty Schools, is given the green light.

The company plans to use the three-storey property as classrooms with a staff room.

There would be around 20 people within the building at any given time, according to the application.

There are two parking spaces behind the building and a car park opposite which will be used by staff and students.

All students would be aged 16 and above.

Planning officers are due to decide the outcome of the planning application by the middle of July.
