Church to Student Housing in Loughborough | Leicester News

An old church in Loughborough is set to transform into student housing, offering 28 new apartments in a historic building that’s hosted offices, a community kitchen, and even a nursery. This isn’t the first redevelopment at the Schofield Centre—its northern wing already houses students—but this time, the southern section, built in 1938, will feature studios and cluster flats with basement communal spaces. Approved by Charnwood Borough Council amid new rules to curb student housing dominance, the project promises to revitalize the town center while meeting conditions like a three-year build window, traffic and noise controls, and funding for local healthcare and parks.
