Cassidy + Ashton gains full planning approval for mixed use redevelopment scheme at Horrockses Quarter

Cassidy and Ashton has gained full planning approval on behalf of its client property developer, The Brookhouse Group, for a mixed use redevelopment scheme at Horrockses Quarter.

Formerly Queens Retail Park, off Queens Street and London Road, the project incorporates: commercial units - from use classes A1-A5 inclusive; food retail store - 7,340 sq metres gross internal floor space; non-food retail store - 1,144 sq metres; car parking; and service yards, following the demolition of existing buildings.

The food store will be located on the first floor with car parking provided underneath the store and on a first floor parking deck. This arrangement allows for store frontages to around the ground floor of the store and creates a building of the scale appropriate to a city centre location.

The intention is to connect Stanley Street with Church Street through a network of streets and squares that are active, safe, welcoming and pedestrian friendly.
