Walk through the MASTER PLAN

Nothing here is run of the mill.

We’re blending history with innovation to create a bold, new 16-acre urban neighbourhood in the heart of Wigan.

The Cotton Works site is the largest undeveloped brownfield site in The North West. The Heaton Group’s master plan will create a new, urban, destination neighbourhood for Wigan; a place to live, work, trade, shop, eat and drink in.

This new neighbourhood will celebrate and enhance the existing grade two listed mill architecture and introduce stunning newly built housing, hotels, leisure areas and landscaped spaces to the townscape.

The Cotton Works won’t just be an aspirational new destination for the people of Wigan, it will be a key destination for the region, acting as an economic hotspot to drive growth.
