Plans for a multi-million pound, 91-bed landmark hotel in Norwich city centre have been submitted.
The planning application for the hotel, in Chamberlain House in Guildhall Hill - above and behind Tesco Metro - has been formally lodged with Norwich City Council.
If councillors grant approval, then the plans for the Victorian building would see empty offices above Tesco turned into hotel rooms, with an extension where the superstore s loading yard is.
The Tesco store would remain, as would shops in neighbouring Dove Street, while new retail units would be created at the back.

BRUNSWICK, Maine If we are going to heal the political divisions in our country, perhaps we need more leaders like Joshua Chamberlain.
Chamberlain became legendary for his courage under fire during the Civil War, especially when he led troops to victory in the Battle of Gettysburg. For people who know him as a fighter, it may be strange to think of him as a peacemaker. But that s exactly the role he played in the days following April 9, 1865.
