UK regeneration specialist St Modwen said on Wednesday that it is preparing plans for a £20 mln (EUR 25 mln) residential-led mixed-use redevelopment of a former Stoke-on-Trent manufacturing facility in Hartshill, east of Birmingham in the UK.

The plans for the 11.25 acre site fronting Shelton New Road will include around 110 high quality family homes plus a local centre incorporating a small convenience store, a parade of four small shops and a public house and restaurant.

The site was formerly used by Dyson Industries to manufacture ceramic heat-resistant products and became surplus to requirement following a restructuring of the business some years ago. IPS Ceramics, which occupies a small part of the site, will be relocating locally as part of the plans.

As part of the planning process, St Modwen is holding a public consultation before the application is submitted in early November.
