Plans to regenerate a Wirral town after it was destroyed in an explosion have been called a “missed opportunity.”
Last week, planning permission was granted by Wirral Council to The Regenda Group to build 34 flats on the site of the explosion in New Ferry six years ago.
This is the first stage of the town’s regeneration which will bring more than 70 new properties to the area as well as improving the street scene with new planters and benches.
