Chesterfield Market Hall contractor scoops prestigious award
Midlands-based contactor G F Tomlinson is celebrating after being recognised for its work on the recently refurbished Chesterfield Market Hall.
The firm won Regeneration & Restoration Project of the Year at the 2014 Insider East Midlands Property Dinner which took place in Nottingham on Wednesday 24th September.
Andy Sewards, Director at G F Tomlinson said: “We’re really pleased to have won – this award reflects the amazing work that our team carries out every single day. We are dedicated to enriching the Midlands community with sustainable and community driven projects.”
Work at Chesterfield Market Hall involved redeveloping the iconic building to restore it to its former glory. The £3.6 million scheme at the Grade II listed building required a contractor that was able to retain the integrity of the iconic building and keep the building at the heart of the town centre. As a local Derbyshire contractor, GF Tomlinson was committed to the project and worked closely with Chesterfield Borough Council to ensure that the result met the community’s expectations.
The market hall is an historic building which is of huge significance to the local community, dating back to 1857. G F Tomlinson’s work saw the building updated to bring it in line with the times while also maintaining its Grade Two features.
