Latest pictures show demolition of the iconic Chesterfield Hotel

Contractors have been on site taking down the building for a few weeks, but work is now gathering pace. Chesterfield Borough Council was granted planning permission to open a temporary car park with a total of 88 spaces at the Malkin Street location.

The proposals will see the existing Chesterfield Hotel car park returned to use alongside a temporary open surface car park, which is to be built on the footprint of the old hotel.
