Tamworth's Transforming Tamworth programme, backed by 21.65 million pounds of Future High Streets Fund investment, has completed the Enterprise Quarter refurbishment of the Assembly Rooms and new public realm linking St Editha's Square to the Castle Gateway. The council is also exploring new uses including housing for its Gungate site, a 6.82 acre town centre plot currently used as a temporary car park. In Amington, the Arkall Farm development off Ashby Road is set to bring significant new housing to the edge of the town. Away from these schemes, established residential areas keep a steady flow of extensions and loft conversions.
