Further details of an ambitious £250m scheme which will include building more than 1,000 news homes in the centre of Wolverhampton have been unveiled at Mipim today.

The Brewers Yard scheme was part of a raft of investment opportunities unveiled by the West Midlands Combined Authority in Cannes yesterday.

The scheme, to be developed jointly by Wolverhampton city council, developer Court Collaboration and the WMCA, is being proposed for a 10-acres brownfield site next to University of Wolverhampton’s Springfield campus.
