Flats to be built on site of former Hereford restaurant on banks of River Wye

THE site of a former Hereford restaurant on the banks of the River Wye is finally set to be developed.

Riverside Construction (Hereford) Ltd will start work in the New Year on 18 new luxury apartments within a secure gated complex off Greyfriars Avenue.

The former Campions restaurant stood empty after it closed in the 1990s and was finally demolished in February 2013.

The site has been the subject of a number of planning applications over the years but plans submitted by Paul Tobin, of Riverside Construction, were approved a year ago.

Mr Tobin said that work will begin in the New Year and is expected to take around 15 to 18 months.

The complex will feature a living green wall which is designed to look aesthetically pleasing, while reducing energy use, providing insulation and minimising carbon dioxide emissions.

Hunters Estate Agents are handling sales and are accepting offers between 279,500 and 295,000.

And the agents say they have already received substantial interest, with nine of the apartments already sold.
