Two buildings on the site have received listed status

The old Morlands sheepskin factory in Glastonbury, Somerset, lay empty for 15 years before being bought by the South West Regional Development Agency in 2001.

A total of 29 buildings on the 31-acre site have already been cleared, and work has now started to demolish the derelict Hepworth building, and an on-site chapel.

Proposals recently submitted for the site include a combined emergency services control centre, offices, shops and cafes.

A more detailed planning application is expected by the end of this year.

Two 19th Century buildings on the site received listed status in August.
