Flats are to be built at a spa hotel once proposed as a wife-swapping club.
Derwentside District Council has granted permission for outbuildings next to the Local Spa Hotel, in Stanley High Street, to be converted into two flats. The first-floor flat will accommodation for the hotel manager.
It is the second development mooted by owner Viv Archer, who is trying to make a success of the spa, after intending to open a swingers' club.
