โช Emerging plans to regenerate the historic Welsh Church on Princes Road could secure the future of one of Toxtethโs best-known landmarks.
Owner Audsley Holdings has spent around 18 months exploring a viable long-term use for the Grade II-listed building and surrounding site, with proposals now taking shape for its restoration and sensitive adaptation as part of a predominantly residential development.
Also known as the โWelsh Churchโ or โToxteth Cathedralโ, the church dates back to the 1860s and has stood vacant and derelict for decades, suffering extensive weather damage and vandalism.
The emerging scheme would seek to retain and repair one of Liverpoolโs most recognisable buildings, with a gym, cafรฉ and visitor centre celebrating the contribution of the cityโs Welsh community also being explored.
A formal pre-application has now been submitted to Liverpool City Council as work continues towards a future planning application.
