Gregory Property Group and Commercial Development Projects Limited of Elland have bought a 10-acre development site at Junction 36 of the M1 at Dearne Valley Parkway, Rockingham from Barnsley Council.
With planning permission in hand the Otley-based developer expects ti start work on three new units before the end of February with completion by February next year. The contractor will be Marshall Construction Ltd.
The site is located a few hundred yards from J36 of the M1 just off the Dearne Valley Link Road and is included in the Hoyland North Masterplan framework.
John McGhee, MD at Gregory Property Group, said: “The site is a high profile and popular location for industrial occupiers because of its excellent transport links and local labour force. The design which includes various tree, shrub and flower planting schemes to improve the biodiversity of the area will make this a very pleasant place to work, and we expect demand for the units to be high.”
Simon Marshall for Commercial Development Projects Limited said: “We are pleased to be able to continue our excellent working relationship with Gregory’s and look forward to working together to deliver this exciting opportunity”.
