Hambleton Steel is delivering a nearly 400-tonne design-and-build structural steelwork package as part of the £50 million transformation of Freshney Place in Grimsby.
Led by North East Lincolnshire Council and delivered by GMI Construction Group, the regeneration is transforming the existing shopping centre into a modern mixed-use destination, including a new five-screen cinema, food and market hall, commercial and leisure space and improved public realm.
Our Scope
Hambleton Steel is responsible for the design, fabrication, supply and erection of the structural steelwork, including:
- Nearly 400 tonnes of structural steel
- The new five-screen cinema steel frame
- Structural alterations to the existing centre
- Steelwork for new extensions
- Site erection and installation
Working within an existing town-centre environment requires careful coordination between the new and retained structures. Our design-and-build approach allows us to work closely with the wider project team to manage interfaces and deliver an efficient, buildable steelwork solution.
Freshney Place demonstrates Hambleton Steel’s capability in delivering large-scale structural steelwork for complex regeneration and refurbishment projects, combining new construction with alterations to existing buildings.

The team was consistently attentive, productive and always willing to go the extra mile to help wherever possible.
We were exceptionally impressed with the way Hambleton Steel incorporated with our design team to produce a suitable and robust design which reflects in the operational performance on site.
Earning industry experience and a qualification has been invaluable. Not every opportunity gives you on-the-job experience and I've found that this has really helped my development
One of the reasons I chose an apprenticeship was because I could earn and learn at the same time. Working at Hambleton Steel has provided me with day-to-day training and experience which has helped me understand the industry and business.
