A FORMER Bolton Jehovah's Witness Kingdom Hall could be converted into a balloon shop.

But councillors have asked to visit the building on the corner of Moss Bank Way and Chorley Old Road first before making a decision.

Part of the building is already used as offices.

But Julie Barnes, who already owns a balloon decor business in Newbrook Road, Over Hulton, wants to expand her into the building's basement.

Objections have been made by Cllr Roger Hayes and a neighbouring business. They say there is not enough car parking and extra traffic will affect road safety.
