THE Alma Inn on Ipsley Street is now closed and will be used for housing and social purposes.
It was reported to Redditch Urban District Council's Estates Committee on Monday.
The surveyor, Mr E Buckley, stated in his report that he had now obtained the keys of the premises and he was of the opinion that the accommodation could be divided to provide accommodation for a large family.
It was pointed out that the upper floor would have to be used for housing purposes to meet the requirements of the Ministry and that part of it might be used to house the Redditch Sons of Rest organisation. It was further suggested that there might also be room to house the Redditch Amateur Drama Group.
The surveyor is to be asked to examine the possibilities.
