so this is at the back of the site... so what are they planning for the front of the site?!?!?

Bachy Soletanche · June 28th, 2011, 08:42 PM

If my experience of Dentists is anything to go by, a huge great big till.

Pebble.Mill · June 28th, 2011, 08:50 PM

and yet you could still rebuild 'me' on the site just with a smaller car park!
This is being built on the site of the staff creche.

The front of the site is still the proposed science park...

feltip · June 28th, 2011, 09:27 PM

This is how it sits into the site

and the indicative plans for the science park. With this Dental Hospital being where Block B is on this plan.

That's the option that's not happening, we're getting the Dental Hospital now!

Looks good though, the faster this moves, the faster the city centre gets redeveloped.

Well even if they did, the entrance to the BBC site had to have the verge lowered for OB vans to get in and out of the yard, bet that remains for years to come.

news to me but thanks.... so this looks like its less about science part but more about niche medical work... still it brings high paid workers into the area and supports the work of the university id assume?!?!?

U475 Foxtrot · June 29th, 2011, 01:02 PM

does anyone know who to contact if i wanted to film on the current derelict site of the old pebble mill studio

Erebus555 · June 30th, 2011, 05:44 PM

Try Calthorpe Estates, they should own the land, or at least know who owns it.

shame its only outline and that we havent really got much more detail than what we've already seen but hey, this is progress....

brumwill · September 1st, 2011, 09:39 PM

Although I'm happy to see something being built on the Pebble Mill site, isn't it a bit inaccessible for the dental hospital. Sure it's fine by car, but not exactly convenient for anyone travelling by train from other parts of the city. I don't really know much about how people go to and from the current dental hospital but it seems there are more transport options in a more central location. Anyone know how they might address this? Just tell people to get a taxi from the station?

What's going to happen to this one on St Chad's Queensway?
