Designed for flexibility, they can be subdivided to create up to six units from 6,568 sq m+ and configured to meet the needs of a diverse range of occupiers. The park comprises around 53,000 sq m of manufacturing and warehouse space, 5,000 sq m of offices and 5,000 sq m of mezzanine space, plus a 300-space car park and cycle parking.
