Future of Nestle site considered
People in Derbyshire are being told they only have a few days left to make their opinions known on the future of the former Nestle site.

Production ceased at the site on Clifton Road in Ashbourne last June.

Local people and businesses have had almost six weeks to make their views known about how the land should be redeveloped in the future.

A range of ideas have been put forward, including a mix of commercial and employment uses.

The district council wants to use the site to attract new industry to the area, which would bring jobs and new housing.

It is also keen to see a gateway development that would mark the entrance to Ashbourne from the eastbound A52.

The public consultation will come to an end on Thursday.
