The 40-acre site, once home to IBM who manufactured computers there in the early 70s, now has a secured long-term vision. The park is a key employment site within the local community, and had over the years failed to fulfil its potential in supporting local and global businesses with a modern and sustainable business park.
The park is currently home to a number of existing buildings and occupiers, who have enjoyed a programme of investment to rejuvenate the common areas, provide high quality workspace alongside a range of amenities. There is an on-site café, nursery, gym, business lounge, meeting rooms, showers & cycle facilities.
The long-term vision for the park will see a phased redevelopment of the park, where existing buildings have become obsolete from both a design and environmental perspective. The consent secured will provide for 680,000 sq. ft of modern, sustainable buildings under uses classes E, B2 & B8.
Phase 1 of that vision has already been delivered and the detailed design of Phase 2 is currently underway.
