Earlestown Regeneration Programme

Background

Works have also commenced to transform the historic Market Square, featuring a new permanent Market Canopy, with wider public realm improvement across the Town Centre.

The overall plans are backed by £20m from the Government Levelling Up Fund and £8m match funding from St Helens Borough Council - which is being delivered in partnership with ECF, a partnership between Homes England, L&G and Muse.
