The Society is calling for the ground floor of Kingfisher House in Walton Street, just by the former canal basin, to be considered as a possible restaurant. Whilst the Society has no objection to the conversion of flats to the upper floors it feels that the area fronting the canal basin at ground floor level lends itself to conversion to a restaurant. This would also be in line with the District Council’s own leisure policy. A restaurant would be well placed for use by visitors to the theatre, tourists visiting by narrow- boat, walkers, and students from the new academy
