New aerial photo's show real progress on site

Last week we received some new aerial photos of the Heartlands site. Below is a 'before' photo taken prior to any works commencing on site and above shows a photo taken in the last 2 weeks.



Above shows a photo of the former mine buildings of Robinson's Shaft which are currently being renovated. Alongside these old building is the new community building, artist studios and apartments. Below shows Pool Innovation Centre in the background which is situated next to Cornwall College. Heartlands will be a very short walk from the College which will be linked via the new road that is also currently being built as a separate scheme.

The photo below shows the new road that skirts the Heartlands site.
