This artist's impression shows how a new park at the side of the town hall could look.

 

It's hoped a £1.6m project to revamp areas surrounding the town hall will encourage investment and growth in Barnsley.

 

Plans have been submitted by Barnsley Council for the redevelopment of the Lancaster Gate car park, at the side of the town hall, and garden areas in front of the building.

 

Coun Roy Miler says it will provided an impressive link to the Experience Barnsley museum as well as stimulating growth in the town centre.
