YOOP Architects | Office 128, 28A Church Rd, Stanmore HA7 4AW | 020 8954 6291 | [email protected] | This document is copyright YOOP Architects Friday, 8 January 2021 1.0 Brief SSYS Beatties Limited commissioned YOOP Architects to create proposals for the re- development of the existing buildings, which have been occupied by the Beatties departments store, and latterly House of Fraser. The requirement is for a contemporary residential and commercial scheme, sympathetic to its host building and surroundings, that satisfies the local planning requirements and contributes to the housing shortage in Wolverhampton. The buildings are to achieve high levels of sustainability, white also being attractive, and an aspirational place for urban living. 1.1 Location The Site occupies an extensive area and is located within the City of Wolverhampton, in the central commercial area. It is bounded by 4 streets; Darlington Street, Victoria Street, Skinner Street and Victoria Street. Further access is provided along Victoria Passage, and Townwell Fold. Vehicular access to the site is primarily via Skinner Street, which leads to access to the mulct-storey car park and delivery areas.

The principle use of the site is commercial, providing 27,587m2 of internal space, this includes office space for administration and concessions for a cafe. A multi-storey car park provides spaces for House of Fraser and the city centre. There are also two nightclubs one of three storeys and 675m2 and one of 1038m2 beneath the car park. There are three smaller ancillary buildings used as warehousing/ storage. The huge amount of retail space has become increasing under-utilised in the 21st century due to the popularity of online shopping and retail parks, and before closure the departments store only used a fraction of the total floor space. Two frontages occupy the principle shopping streets which feature heavy footfall, whereas the rear of the buildings along Skinner and School Streets see less pedestrians due to the lack of active frontages.

This currently feels dark and unwelcoming, and unfriendly during nighttime, especially being an access to the nightclub. The site is highly under utilised in this town centre location, historically supported by the requirements of a large department store. This has led to light footfall across much of the site with few active frontages. 1.3 Context The principal frontage on Victoria Street is Locally Listed as of March 16th 2000, ‘House art deco style with elephant head motifs.’ This was originally a Burtons Clothing Store but bought out by Beatties. The surrounding area is mixed in character. Opposite on Victoria and Darlington Street are retail units on the ground floor with offices or residential above, with lesser vested retail units on School and Skinner Streets. 1.4 Neighbouring Buildings Figure v; View along Skinner Street with the late 20th century extension to Beatties in the foreground The site forms a prominent location in the context of it’s neighbours. The surrounding streets feature a mix of ages and styles. Victorian shops feature on Darlington street, whereas the majority of Victoria Street was developed into the ‘Mander Centre’. To the rear, Victoria Passage retains an early 20th century warehouse feel with lower height buildings and intimacy. Opposite the modern Beatties extension on Skinner Street there is a very tall Grade II Listed former Odeon cinema building, which is faced with black and cream faience, and currently being used as banqueting suites. 1.5 Topography and Levels The site is gradually sloping, the highest point being the corner of Darlington and Skinner Figure vi; View from corner of Darlington and School Strayers, with Listed Building to right and car park behind Streets. Access into the site is at various levels along these streets. Skinner Street is level approximately one storey below.

    Longdon Life Spring 2016 LONGDON LIFE Spring 2016 Letter from the Chairman Hello all, I hope you are enjoying the signs of Spring and the lighter mornings and evenings. To begin, I would like to take the opportunity, to thank on behalf of the Parish, three Councillors who have resigned over THANK YOU the last few months; Richard Clarke, Chris Cherry, Jane Cleaver. You have all invested long hours, and hard work over the years, and it is very much appreciated. Thankyou. I would also like to welcome our new Councillor Ann Fullwood, who brings highly relevant experience, and a desire to help us improve. I am confident that you will get to know Ann, because she walks huge distances around the Parish. This does still leave us with vacancies, please would you consider joining our team and play a part in improving the community in which you live. In previous editions of Longdon Life, I have used the strap-line for the Parish Council… ‘Our role is to listen to you, our Parishioners, to establish what is required, and take action accordingly.’ So what have we been doing? Here are some examples of current work, which indicate that we are responding directly to Parishioners concerns: x pushing Staffordshire County Council (SCC): to complete a safety review of all the roads and lanes in the Parish; requesting they complete the traffic calming proposal for Upper Way; reporting current footpath and bridleway blockages x working with Lichfield District Council (LDC): challenging current inappropriate planning applications in the Parish; receiving their comments regarding the Neighbourhood Plan; x starting to explore with the Parish, the possibility of a ‘parish organised’ transport scheme x improving our image by agreeing a refurbishment plan for all the Parish Council owned wooden assets, e.g.

Retail Market Trends – the national picture 2. Sutton Town Centre – the fundamentals : - layout and structure - environmental quality - accessibility 3. Sutton Town Centre – non-retail uses 4. Sutton Town Centre – trends in retail representation : 5. Sutton Town Centre – expanding the retail offer 6. Development Potential : specific sites 7. Suggested physical and promotional measures Appendices 1. How the town centre divides up (plan) 2. Main components of the shopping core (aerial photograph) 3. Retail composition (Goad Plan extract) 4. The Solihull factor 5. The Fort Retail Park – retail mix 6. Ventura Retail Park – retail mix 7. House of Fraser – Sutton Coldfield relaunch 2 CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVES In 2016 the Sutton Coldfield electorate voted in favour of establishing a town council to represent the interests of the town in a more focused way than is realistically possible for Birmingham City Council. Sutton’s population of some 95,000 covers a wide area that extends from the Staffordshire border to Wylde Green, and from the west side of Sutton Park across to Walmley. Despite the size of this area and its substantial population, it is dwarfed by the sheer scale of Birmingham City which has a total population of 1.2 million; to the south-west the continuous built-up area reaches as far as Rubery (15 miles from the centre of Sutton).
