End of an era as famous West Lothian nightclub pulled down

It’s the end of an era for one of West Lothian’s most famous nightclubs.

Club Earth - which closed in 2017 - in Livingston is being ripped down to make way for a new nursing home.

A right of passage for most folk in West Lothian, it’s also been known as Zen and Melvilles over the years before the space was most recently used for church meetings - but it did re-open for pop-up club nights in 2019.

Morrison Community Care is transforming the site into a care service centre with private residential nursing and dementia care for up to 66 residents.

The proposed development, dubbed as ‘Almondside Luxury Suites’, would provide residents with private dining facilities, a cinema, a hairdressing salon, private en-suite bedrooms, and outdoor recreational space.

Nursing staff would be available 24/7 and employed as part of a locally-based recruitment drive that could see up to 150 jobs created across a wide variety of roles and disciplines.
