Updated On 30th September Councillor Dave Liversidge, who is a key officer of the City Council, made an executive decision to provide £1,132,350 from the Capital Fund for the demolition works to Digby Court, Cranwell Road
Crosswall Flats, Robin Hood Chase and Locksley House.

The new concept | Lose the present small car park area, bottom row of 4 shops & former housing office, and the former Wellspring health centre, which will be subject to demolition before Christmas. A new car park area will be introduced at the bottom of the Chase with access from St Ann’s Well Road. A new super market will be built that will be 40% larger than the former Co-op, with sheltered accommodation for the elderly above. Three new shop units will be constructed facing the St Ann’s Valley Centre.

  • Proposed to build 45 sheltered units over 3 floors. 44 one bed and 1 two bed unit.
  • There are 3 shop units shown on the plan, the supermarket at the front can be split into two units to make a total of  4 shops or kept as one big store (which will be more attractive to a retailer) with an option to include a retail unit within the larger store (e.g. a post office or sandwich shop).
  • There are no plans to reopen Livingstone Street to Aster Road.

ASRA Housing Group will manage all of the accommodation once the scheme has been construction by Wilmot Dixon, and Asra will contribute £1m to the scheme.
