Features and description
A development project with a difference - the “Pearl of the Dane, ” a 250-ton steamboat moored at Congleton Quay with land, parking and scope for serious transformation.
Once trading as a café, bar and restaurant with over 80 covers, the boat spans three decks:
The boat is free-floating and rises with the water. It’s been empty for some time and has suffered vandalism, so a refurbishment budget is essential. But with nearby approvals for major residential and care home schemes, the local authority is clearly behind regeneration. A bold conversion to residential, hospitality, or mixed community use could well find favour.
