Caunton supplied and erected the steelwork for a new shopping complex being built by major contractor Bowmer and Kirkland in Seaham Co. Durham. The contract was design-and-build and Caunton have enjoyed a mutually beneficial D&B relationship with Bowmer and Kirkland for some time having most recently worked together at Cobalt Business Park in nearby Newcastle.

The complex is entitled Byron’s Place in recognition of its links and proximity to Seaham Hall where Lord Byron wed Anne Isabella Milbanke and where they resided during their short-lived married life together.

The new multi-million pound shopping complex includes an Asda, Argos and Wilkos stores and aims to revitalise the area, using the successful redevelopment of the central shopping district of neighbouring town Peterlee as a benchmark.
