Part of the major development of the old Wills tobacco site, this new apartment block is clad in copper-coloured material and finished with yellow soft timber balconies. The block is designed to compare with the original office block nearby that was constructed in exposed Cor-ten steel.

Lakeshore's new Copper Building
The old Wills tobacco factory site has been extensively redeveloped into a retail park and some expensive housing opportunities. Originally bought in the late 1960s, the site was landscaped to include man-made lakes, supplied by the local Pigeonhouse stream.

Lakeshore in green
The old Wills tobacco factory site was shut in the 1990s and largely left to rot. Inevitably, decay and vandalism occurred but the office block was then redeveloped into upmarket apartments. With it, the man-made water features were cleared, cleaned and restocked with fish to provide a pleasant environment for the residents - just as it did for the original office staff.

Old Imperial Tobacco Head Quarters
This was called the Podium, and from its basement was a tunnel to the factory which has been pulled down. BBC used the tunnel in early Dr Who shots. It is now being converted into accommodation.

Lakeshore development
The entrance sign to the development of the old Wills tobacco factory site. In the background is the original office block that is made with exposed Cor-ten steel and was a prominent local landmark. Once the factory closed in the 1990s the block remained abandoned until a major investment brought a conversion into luxury apartments, with a generous extra coating of plastic to provide cover for the atrium.
