The multi-use facility has been designed for community and business use. It will house micro-business units, a market hall/conference centre and accommodation for adult care and support.
The traditional design and build contract will include various environmental features which will ensure it achieves a BREEAM 鈥淓xcellent鈥 rating.
The project will be part financed by the European Union, with financial support from the European Regional Development fund 2007-13 and from the European Agricultural Fund for European Development 2007-13: Europe investing in rural areas.
Work is due to start on site in April and will complete in January 2012.
