The Parkside site LAND home to the former Parkside Colliery has been labelled as ‘unequivocally’ one of the best sites to meet employment need during a public inquiry. The virtual public inquiry over plans to regenerate the former Parkside Colliery site in Newton-le-Willows started last week. Proposals to redevelop former colliery, which was shut in 1993, were originally submitted in January 2018 by Parkside Regeneration LLP, a joint venture between developer Langtree and St Helens Borough Council. St Helens Borough Council granted outline planning permission in December 2019, while also giving the green light for the Parkside Link Road project, which is seen as a key element to unlocking the potential of the site.
