The new Bentley Primary Care Centre will bring two existing GP surgeries under one roof.

Located on Chapel Street in Bentley, just north of Doncaster, the new three-storey, 1,215 sqm care centre will provide purpose-built facilities to support integrated healthcare delivery for City of Doncaster Council. Funding for the construction is provided by NHS England, with NHS South Yorkshire ICB providing revenue for the building once complete.

The scheme is being developed on the site of the former Bentley Community Library, which has already been demolished to make way for the new care centre.

Derby’s GF Tomlinson, as the main contractor, is undertaking the design and construction of the steel-framed building, which will feature a mix of brickwork and cladding on its façade, along with associated external works to complete the scheme.

The building has been designed by P+HS Architects to a BREEAM Excellent rating, with rooftop photovoltaic panels. It also has bird and bat boxes within the façade. Sewell Advisory is project manager; Bridges Pound is the structural, civil, and geotechnical engineer. Completion is expected in spring 2026.

GF Tomlinson managing director Adrian Grocock said: “As our first project with the council, we’re excited to build a strong working relationship, while further strengthening our healthcare portfolio, having recently delivered successful schemes such as Greenwood House Medical Centre in Stafford and West Bridgford Medical Centre in Nottingham.”
