Bath & North East Somerset Council and Midsomer Norton Town Council have jointly launched a public consultation on the IMAGINE Midsomer Norton Town Centre Masterplan, a bold vision identifying projects to improve the heart of the town.

The masterplan is centred around the former Midsomer Norton Brewery buildings and the surrounding retail area. It also encompasses the town’s main car parks on South Road and to the rear of Sainsbury's supermarket.

The projects in the masterplan include:

Restoration and reuse of historic buildings, including bringing the former Bob's Palais and the Old Gas Works sites back into use

Improved public spaces and pedestrian connections, including improving the links between the high street and the town park

New homes and business spaces in the town centre, such as the redevelopment of a private car park for housing.
