Notice Title

Safeguarding Works to Burslem Indoor Market and Apartments on Queen Street

Notice Description

A historic Stoke-on-Trent indoor market has been Grade II listed - 20 years after it closed its doors. Burslem indoor market opened in 1879 but closed in 2003 following a ceiling collapse and has remained empty ever since. The aim of the project is to undertake repairs to the external building fabric including roofs, external walls and internal structure to make the structure safe, wind and weathertight. Burslem Market Hall: - Works to address water ingress issues and ensure the building is wind and weather tight including roofing, lead box gutter and external brickwork repairs. - Works to patch repair plaster to high level sections of the roof. - Glazing repairs to roof and rendle system. - Replacement external walkways to the Market Hall roof. - Works to address health and safety hazards to the interior and exterior of the building - Asbestos removal and encapsulation works as required - Works to remove existing internal lighting system to the Market Hall. Residential apartments: - Remedial works and repairs to rainwater disposal installation - Chimney and brickwork repairs - Pitched roof repairs The building, which is owned by Stoke-on-Trent City Council, has been listed at Grade II by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport on the advice of Historic England, giving it greater protection and recognition. The council is 'looking into options' for the future use of the market that will enhance the historic building, relate to its former function and bring life back into the town centre. Feasibility studies are being undertaken to advise on potential future uses. The properties include Burslem Market Hall, associated residential apartments, and retail units 22 Queen Street, 26 Queen Street, 32 Queen Street and 34 Queen Street, located on Queen Street, Burslem, Stoke on Trent.
