Title: Chesterfield Market Hall contractor scoops prestigious award
Post by: Pete on September 27, 2014, 10:10:46 AM
The contractor that refurbished the market hall won an award for it last week.

"Work at Chesterfield Market Hall involved redeveloping the iconic building to restore it to its former glory. The £3.6 million scheme at the Grade II listed building required a contractor that was able to retain the integrity of the iconic building and keep the building at the heart of the town centre. As a local Derbyshire contractor, GF Tomlinson was committed to the project and worked closely with Chesterfield Borough Council to ensure that the result met the community’s expectations."

"...Keep the building at the heart of the town centre?" What, was someone else thinking, "Let's move it to Sheepbridge?" As for "meeting the public's expectations," I'd have credited the public with having higher expectations than that.
