A £1M scheme to revive the centre of Crook will be unveiled to the town's Community Partnership on Thursday.

The money comes from a Market Town Regeneration Programme announced by Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott in May.

Bob Hope, director of regeneration at Wear Valley District Council, will present an outline of the scheme at a meeting at Crook Cricket Club, from 7pm.
