The <a href="/pages/w/109621735730110">Brierley Hill</a> area had suffered the loss of the <a href="/pages/w/143018725710917">Round Oak Steelworks</a>, and it was hoped that other manufacturers could be encouraged to move into the area. Incentives included relaxed planning rules and a ten-year period exempt from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_rates" class="wikipedia">business rates</a>. Developers saw the opportunity to take advantage of lack of restrictions by making a shopping centre, rather than industrial units originally envisaged as the mainstay of the Enterprise Zone.</p>
