DEVELOPERS of the Skyline apartment block on the outskirts of Barnsley town centre have announced a completion date.

Formerly known as City Reach, developers say the building should be completed by the end of September.

Work is about to start installing the external cladding on the building which stands opposite Morrisons, at the junction of John Street and Burleigh Street.

Superior Living Limited, based in Liverpool, took ownership of what had become a derelict eyesore after buying it for £375,000 at auction last October, just four per cent of its original estimated value.
