Description

The property comprises the former HSBC office site at 79 Hoyle
Street, Sheffield, extending around the historic Doncaster Street
Cementation Furnace. The site offers a significant residential-led
regeneration opportunity in a gateway location to Sheffield City
Centre.

A defining feature of the scheme is the Grade II Listed Cementation
Furnace, which is also a Scheduled Ancient Monument. The
approved proposals place this important heritage asset at the heart
of the development, incorporating it within landscaped communal
space and a new pedestrian route through the site.
The consented development is arranged in separate PRS and PBSA
blocks, divided by a central pedestrian boulevard, with ancillary
ground-floor commercial/retail accommodation, landscaped public
realm, resident amenity areas, cycle provision and associated
servicing.

The consent has been implemented for the PBSA element of the site
with piled foundations and ground beams having been installed.
