A vision for a thriving Earlestown
St Helens Borough Council and its strategic development partner the English Cities Fund (ECF) are bringing forward ambitious plans to restore Earlestown to its rightful status as a thriving market town.
These proposals will strengthen the town’s offering, by creating spaces that residents, local businesses and visitors can make greater use of and enjoy. This includes creating a more animated, attractive, and flexible market square and returning the historic Town Hall to its rightful place as a community hub, alongside accessibility and environmental improvements.
The vision for Earlestown town centre has been informed by public consultation, the objectives set out within the Conservation Management Plan and the following key objectives:
