A plan for Grimsby’s Freshney Place Shopping Centre to be bought by the local council has moved a step closer.
The enclosed mall in the town centre, the largest in the county and the retail heart of the borough, was plunged into receivership earlier this year.
North East Lincolnshire Council has submitted a bid ahead of a deadline this week, with the authority’s cabinet approving the proposal, made public earlier this month. It will now go before a full council meeting next month.
