Kings Court is one of a number of
schemes rejuvenating the area which will further provide residential,
business and retail opportunities, together with the impressive
expansion and redevelopment of Blackburn College.
The Kings Court Project includes renovation of the important historic
building. It will see the building brought back to its former glory,
bringing back into use 1360 square metres of workspace and creating
1095 square metres of new accommodation through a new extension
to the rear.

The enterprise centre will be unique
in Britain and Europe by providing support services to ensure inclusion
of Deaf people within a fully commercial setting. The project is
supported through the Blackburn with Darwen Council’s Townscape
Heritage Initiative and the Town Centre Renaissance Programme. It
includes funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund, North West Development
Agency, European Regional Development Fund, Single Regeneration
Budget and the East Lancashire Deaf Society. |
