A derelict former school which has been attracting vandalism for years is to be sold at auction.
New Summerseat House in Ramsbottom has been vacant since 2016 when its former use as a Pupil Referral Unit ceased.
Since that time the buildings have significantly deteriorated and the property suffers from ongoing issues of anti-social behaviour.
There have been three attempts to sell the property previously via a tender process, but each time the sale has not completed.
Eamonn O’Brien, leader of Bury Council, said: “The disposal of this site will bring forward the restoration of this Listed building, end problems caused to local residents by the empty building attracting anti-social behaviour, and remove ongoing liabilities to the council for security and maintenance.”
Councillors are due to approve the plans at the next cabinet meeting on March 5.
