Plans for pebble mill

07 December 2012
Volume 28 · Issue 10

Detailed planning permission has been granted by Birmingham City Council to build a new Dental Hospital and the University of Birmingham’s School of Dentistry on the former BBC Pebble Mill site. 

The proposed development, led by Birmingham Community Healthcare NHS Trust, together with its partners the University of Birmingham, Birmingham and Solihull LIFT (BaS LIFT) and Calthorpe Estates, would deliver the same range of services currently provided at the St. Chad’s Circus site from a modern fit-for-purpose building.

Proposals and designs for the Dental Hospital and School of Dentistry were developed by One Creative Environments Ltd, and shared with local residents, staff and students at different stages of development, via a number of public exhibitions held throughout 2011/12, providing details of where the four-storey building would be located and how the site would be accessed. 

Work will also focus on concluding the final stage of the business case and completing the legal documentation. It is hoped this will be concluded during the early part of next year so that work can begin on site in Spring 2013, with the facility being operational in Spring/Summer 2015.
