Plans for a multi-million pound mixed-use scheme in a Derbyshire town have been given the go-ahead.

Blue Deer, the firm behind The Glass Yard project, have been given the green light by Chesterfield Borough Council to create the scheme on the former fire station site in Sheffield Road, Chesterfield.

The project will see the creation of new offices and accommodation for artisan food producers, restaurants, cafes and retail units. Blue Deer, based in Hathersage, has owned the 2.1-acre site since 2016.

According to planning documents submitted as part of its application to the borough council, the firm said that it will create “28 compact office units, and three mixed use units, which incorporate a food producer, restaurant, bar, café, retail and business centre use”.

The documents also said that The Glass Yard will be served by 163 parking spaces.

In a statement on Blue Deer’s website, it said: “The Glass Yard brings together beautiful, contemporary design to create a development that incorporates both small office units and a central barn.

“The central barn is mainly for artisan food producers, restaurants, cafes and retail units.

“Inspired by the markets you find in central Europe, we want to make the barn area inclusive to both food and craft.
