The Opportunity
Substantial investment is ongoing in Oldham’s town centre, with high-quality public realm at Parliament Square in the renovated Old Town Hall area, alongside investment into the appearance and functionality of surrounding streets.
Oldham Council bought Spindles Town Square Shopping Centre in October 2020, to take control of this strategically important scheme located at the heart of the town centre. Works are underway to undertake a comprehensive redevelopment of the shopping centre to provide a new home for Tommyfield Market, a Civic Hub, Event Space and Archive, as well as consolidate the retail core.
The redevelopment of Spindles Town Square Shopping Centre and the relocation of Tommyfield Market will free up previously developed land across the town centre. This includes the sites of the current market hall and the former leisure centre, which the Council plans to bring back to life, centred around a brand new 5.7-acre park.
The Sites
The 5 Sites are each situated in core town centre locations and therefore present a unique opportunity to provide a significant contribution towards the transformation of Oldham town centre. The sites are:
- Civic Centre
- Tommyfield Market
- Former Leisure Centre
- Former Magistrates Court & Manchester Chambers
- Bradshaw Street
