Thetford Riverside is a development by Breckland Bridge, an innovative joint venture between Breckland Council and The Land Group. It is a key regeneration project for Thetford, designed to act as a catalyst for future development. The scheme comprises redevelopment of the bus station and adjoining Anchor Hotel site to form a new Travelodge hotel and a 3-screen cinema for The Light Cinemas, designed by Burrows Little. The two anchors are supported by 5 restaurant units. Prominently located adjoining the Little Ouse river the development will create a new leisure destination for the town centre. Construction commenced in May 2015 with completion due next month, November 2016.
The Light's cinema offer will include a brasserie style lobby at Ground Floor with access to the three auditoriums at First Floor.
