Freshney Place's proposed new look unveiled as plans firmed up to widen Grimsby town centre appeal

Images of how Grimsby’s Freshney Place could look with its cinema and leisure additions have been published ahead of the planning process.

The visions, including cinema, new entrance, community space, landscaping, cafes, seating and a relocation of the town centre market, depict the transformation of the western end of the now council-owned shopping centre and pedestrianised Victoria Street and Bull Ring.

What was once BHS and a parade of smaller units on the enclosed mall make way, with the Market Hall car park also gone as the height requirements for the cinema are factored in. There's a strong nod to the existing red brick and arched facade, with high windows opening up what would be the new venue for stallholders.
