'OUTDATED' WALKWAYS CONTAIN HAZARDOUS ASBESTOS
TWO bridges at an empty Mansfield department store are set to be demolished under plans that will pave the way for its multi-million pound redevelopment.
Beales closed in 2020 after its owners fell into administration during the pandemic, but now its long-planned redevelopment is taking another step forward.
Mansfield District Council's £30 million regeneration plan hopes to give the grey and vacant Queen Street shopping centre a brighter future by turning it into a new civic and community hub. The old store is expected to house Mansfield District Council and Nottinghamshire County Council, as well as a Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) job assessment centre, a fitness suite and a small shop.
