Channel 4's new interior design competition series will feature the designers behind the redevelopment of Farnworth.

The winner of The Big Interiors Battle will walk away with a two-bedroom apartment in Capital&Centric's Eywitness Works development in Sheffield.

It is set to air in early 2023 and will see eight talented interior designers receive the keys to an apartment where they are challenged to transform a different room each week.

Co-founder of Capital&Centric, Adam Higgins, said: "Whether historic restorations or new builds, all the communities we deliver are design-led and attract residents with a great eye for interior style."

The show will be hosted by AJ Odudu and will feature Dara Huang as a judged.

A project to breathe new life into Farnworth town centre has officially started.

Farnworth Green, which is scheduled to be completed by August 2024, will reboot an area that has been somewhat forgotten for many years.

Demolition of former retail units in the Farnworth Market Precinct on Blackley Street will be completed early in the new year.

In their wake will sprout a community focussed, 20,000 square foot space including 85 one and two bed apartments, 12 two and three bed family homes, bars, cafes, and shops, a community hub, and a public square with plenty of green space.
