Regeneration of Heanor Town Centre

Heanor Market Place


Amber Valley Borough Council is in the process of delivering a major regeneration of Heanor Town Centre after securing funding from the Future High Streets Fund and the transformation of Heanor Market Place is central to this. Heanor Market Place can once again become the vibrant and bustling heart of the town centre.

We were commissioned from concept design through to detailed design and worked closely with the client team, stakeholders and the community to create and refine the design. The proposals re-imagine the area as a flexible and adaptable outdoor space for the whole community to enjoy.

 

Regeneration Case Study: Olive Lane, Waverley

In 2025 we celebrated the opening of Olive Lane, which was delivered by Harworth Group at their flagship Waverley development in Yorkshire. Olive Lane is the ‘heart of the community’ with a vision to join together the Advanced Manufacturing Park and residential development at Waverley, through high quality commercial, community and residential uses. Our public realm and landscape design helps create a vibrant, welcoming, community focused place, featuring the high street, a central plaza and pocket parks. The launch event was attended by over 1,000 Waverley residents, which brought the street to life.

"PWP Design delivered an extensive and inspiring design guide and sketch design, transcending our own expectations of what was possible with our limited budget. Simon Hall's knowledge, enthusiasm and ever-present support has been a breath of fresh air and we are extremely thankful for his contribution to the project."
