In the late 1990s, English Partnerships and their consultants Urban Villages Forum (UVF) invited architect / design consortia to prepare a comprehensive master plan for the redevelopment of the former Westoe Colliery site. The Westoe Colliery site is one mile south east of the South Shields town centre, adjacent to the South Shields foreshore, with dramatic views of the foreshore and the North Sea beyond.

English Partnerships were seeking to procure a mixed-use development on this site and required consortia to adopt design criteria which utilised and promoted the urban village approach in the establishment of new neighbourhoods. When the Westoe Colliery closed in 1993, the South Tyneside Metropolitan Borough Council were keen to replace traditional industry with modern industrial units. However, given the nature of the site, there was general agreement by the Local Authority and English Partnerships that residential development should be the predominant use of the site. Terry Farrell and Partners submitted a masterplan in February 1999; however, the eventual development contract went to the Princes’ Foundation.

This project involved the refurbishment and development of properties owned by Lloyds Bank plc at 6-8 Pall Mall, 1-6 Waterloo Place, and 25-27 Charles II Street, London. This included the Lloyds Headquarters at Pall Mall. In July 1989 Terry Farrell and Company were appointed as architects to the project.

The initial proposals for the scheme were to partially demolish the existing Pall Mall building. The external elevations were to be retained, the basement was to be enlarged, and there was to be the construction of new enclosures and an arcade/lightwell wall. New internal spaces included the Long Room, Charles II Street Entrance, Pall Mall Entrance and the Grand Room.

There was also to be repaving in 'York Stone' at the front of the development to provide urban improvement.

It is unclear if this project went ahead, at the time of the scheme proposal a cost-reduction procedure was in place, so not all proposals could be carried out as specified in the initial design scheme.
