Work on a huge £340 million regeneration scheme in a Derbyshire town will start early next year.
Following several years in the planning, construction work on the first building in the Chesterfield Waterside scheme is scheduled to begin in the New Year.
The development is a major mixed use scheme, set on a canal-side environment, situated on the edge of the town centre and directly adjacent to the mainline railway station.

The project is being delivered by Chesterfield Waterside Limited, a joint venture between Bolsterstone Group, Laver Regeneration and Chesterfield Borough Council.
