Tourism plans for Athol Street offices

An office building which once appeared in a film could become tourism accommodation - if planners approve new proposals.

Bravo Homes of Ballasalla says it wants to transform Talbot Chambers on Athol Street into five apartments for tourists to stay in.

In its application, the company says it was a former hotel and inn until it was converted into offices in the 1930s.

In 2005, the building was used to film part of Chromophobia - which starred Kristin Scott Thomas, Penélope Cruz, Ralph Fiennes, Ian Holm and Rhys Ifans.
