Welcome to Midsomer Norton's High Street Renewal Programme

The High Street renewal programme for Midsomer Norton includes a range of activities to improve the town centre and is an accumulation of different projects. The scheme aims to support sustainable economic & cultural growth on the high street, enhance local historic character making streets vibrant places. The programme will do this through physical works to buildings, including repair, reinstatement of lost features, public realm improvements and master planning.

The Island has suffered from underinvestment for many years but contractors are now on site to deliver a new Market Square for Midsomer Norton.

The Grade II Listed Town Hall is currently undergoing a £1.5m renovation that will restore the Victorian Market Hall. 

We are working with local businesses to deliver much needed investment in the High Street. A number of shopfront and signage improvements have already been undertaken with more planned. 

Community activities, like the Fayre, are central to life in Midsomer Norton. See how we plan to support arts, culture and events on the High Street.
