We are pleased to share that Cordia UK’s Nightingale project on Great Hampton Row in Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter, designed by Dyer, has recently received planning permission.
The scheme sensitively combines the restoration of the historic Nightingale Textile Factory with new, sustainably designed residential buildings, supporting the long-term regeneration of this significant heritage area while respecting its industrial character.
A key element of the project is The Nightingale Warehouse (Mott Street / Great Hampton Row). This historic Jewellery Quarter building was originally home to JG Beddoes, a lock manufacturer, from 1915, before later operating as a cardboard box factory until the early 1980s. It was subsequently converted into a warehouse and became the former site of Nightingale Knitwear. As part of Cordia UK’s wider regeneration plans, the development adopts a sensitive façade-retention approach alongside carefully crafted new-build elements. The historic frontage will be restored, while new BTR residential apartments, amenity and commercial space are delivered. The scheme will play an active role in the regeneration of the Jewellery Quarter’s important heritage area, supporting its continued evolution and long-term vitality.
Congratulations to everyone involved on reaching this important milestone.
