Three Bury town centre buildings are set to be demolished to make way for a redevelopment of the town’s famous market.
Bury Council has also given approval for the removal of market canopies ahead of works for proposed £20m new Flexihall and market canopy which was given levelling up funding from the government in late 2021.
The buildings which have been given permission to be demolished are the market offices, a single building with three retail units on Princess Parade and a building next to that containing restaurant space and the former Admiral gambling unit. Planning documents published ahead of demolition, said: “The retail and restaurant units are two storey buildings and are constructed from brick with flat roofs.
