Caunton supplied over 1300te for this major development, managed by major contractor Bowmer & Kirkland. This follows the two companies’ successful collaboration with the Tesco Extra Store in Chesterfield in 2009.

The site is that of the former Walsall College. In a land swap deal, Walsall College moved to a new site and opened its Wisemore campus. The steelwork comprises a two storey structure and included floor beams from “cellular beams” so efficient when housing M&E services in particular, and minimizing building height.

With the new manor hospital due to open this year and work to start soon on the new homes at Walsall waterfront, investment and change is much in evidence in the town. Caunton are pleased to be part of this regeneration of the town which has for so long been the British centre of saddle-making.
