Blackpool Council has purchased Houndshill Shopping Centre for £47.6m and will invest in its expansion as part of ongoing town centre regeneration plans.
Houndshill is home to more than 60 outlets, including the Debenham’s department store, and the deal includes its 770-space multi-storey car park. The council is also in the process of acquiring two adjacent units on Victoria Street, which form part of the centre but are under separate ownership.
