The Grade II-listed building off the ring road is being restored and converted into apartments for people aged over 55.

An additional 123 homes for affordable rent and 31 for shared ownership will be built on land to the rear of the hospital building.

The completed site will also include a large open space and pedestrianised area to help connect the new development with the city centre.
