Church Wharf Bolton, BL2 2BZ

This 13 acre site at Church Wharf in Bolton will be developed for Bolton Council by Ask and its joint venture partner BlueMantle. It will be a £210m dynamic, high quality mixed-use scheme, combining stylish architecture and stunning open spaces. There are also buildings of local heritage in the area, which will be retained and blended in with the redevelopment.

The scheme will include a new business quarter comprising more than 340,000 sq ft of new office space, a mix of apartments and town houses, a 65,000 sq ft leisure quarter featuring a cinema, retail and lesiure units and an 80 bed hotel, a series of high-quality pedestrian routes and public spaces.

Other key elements include the creation of a new multi-storey car park for residents and workers at the offices, and replacement of a multi-storey car park for shoppers and visitors.

There will be extensive landscaping and an eye-catching footbridge spanning the River Croal and leading to Churchgate and into the town centre.
