Control Post 18

Plans are afoot to convert this disused site into a entertainment complex.

 

People living near the Derbyshire village of Crich are being asked for their views on plans to build a huge waterpark in a nearby derelict quarry. The Crich Quarry hasn't been used for more than a decade, but revised plans could soon see it become a hive of activity for the next few years.

Developers say the Amber Rock Resort project will create jobs for the local economy. During construction, it could create two hundred jobs, and once operational, the site would have a hundred full-time and part-time jobs. But many residents are worried it could all mean more congestion for the area.

 

The plans include:

a 116-bed hotel

148 straw bale lodges, with seven floating

210 holiday lodges

shops

restaurants

a sports hall

 

The project is likely to take over 5 years to complete.
