The transformation of Crown House within the wider Rosegarth Square redevelopment site in Boston is now moving forward, with foundation works set to begin next week.
Plans were formally submitted to the council’s Planning Committee in November 2024, with permission then granted in January of this year. Demolition works to the old Crown House building began in March and in July, Lindum Group was appointed as the main contractor for the works. They are now delivering both phases of the Rosegarth Regeneration scheme in tandem.
The construction of this space will deliver a modern new building featuring flexible retail space on the ground floor and modern apartments across two upper levels.
As part of the scheme, modernised public toilets will be introduced on site, whilst the existing Changing Places facility will be relocated to a more central and easily accessible location within the wider Rosegarth Square development.
Construction of the public realm phase began in July, bringing to life a redesigned space which combines greenery with a mix of relocated and newly commissioned artworks, social areas, and a refreshed entrance and drop-off zone for the Len Medlock Centre.
The new public realm will also feature an amphitheatre-style seating area, designed to host community events and gatherings.
Councillor Dale Broughton, leader of Boston Brough Council, said: “This next phase in the Rosegarth Square development marks a key milestone not only for the construction of the Crown House building but for the progress of the entire redevelopment.
“This is a proud moment for Boston, and a clear sign of our commitment to positive change. This project is about breathing new life into a key part of our town.
“With Lindum Group now delivering both phases of the Rosegarth scheme, we’re seeing tangible progress in creating a more vibrant, accessible, and welcoming space for residents, visitors, and businesses alike.”
