A NEW tenant is set to move in the former Greenock Police Club, property firm Bowman Rebecchi has announced. 

A long-term lease has been agreed for the Thom Street building, which closed in March 2020 after more than 100 years in the town.

The club was the world's oldest free-standing police club prior to its closure, having been formed in 1898 and located in Thom Street since 1932.

The club's doors were closed at the start of the Covid pandemic and members decided six months later to pull the plug on the facility permanently.

Located adjacent to Murdieston Dam, the building was bought in January 2021 following the club’s fall into liquidation, but has returned to the market a number of times since then. 

No details have been provided about the new tenants, but Gourock property firm Bowman Rebecchi says more information will be made available in the near future.
