Proposals to breathe new life into the Canal Quarter area of Lancaster were unveiled at a special event on Sunday 9 October 2022 on Brewery Lane and at Kanteena.

  • The Masterplan will be also be on display at Lancaster Town Hall between 9am and 1pm (weekdays) up until the 28 October 2022. 

Background

Lancaster City Council has been working on a vision and regeneration strategy to bring back into use many of its important buildings and derelict sites to create a vibrant, sustainable and active place which is integrated both with the city centre and the Lancaster Canal to create a diverse, commercial, cultural and residential neighbourhood. Lancaster’s Canal Quarter covers around six acres of land, immediately to the east of the city centre.

In December 2021 the council appointed PRP Architects to develop a masterplan for the Canal Quarter that responds to the vision, aspirations and development principles of the LCQSPD (Lancaster Canal Quarter Supplementary Planning Guidance). The consultation material, which can be found on the right of this page, sets out a vision for how we believe the site can be developed for the benefit of residents of businesses.
