Ashfield Land has acquired a 40-acre logistics development site to the west of Shawell in Leicestershire for an undisclosed price.
The site, which is located just off the A5 close to the M1 and M6 motorways in the heart of the ‘Golden Triangle’, has the potential to deliver 630,000 sq ft of logistics space.
Ben Holmes, director at Ashfield Land, said: “This is a textbook Ashfield Land deal for a site which has outstanding potential for logistics development within a very exciting market. We’re delighted to have completed the unconditional acquisition and are looking forward to progressing with our plans to secure planning and deliver a best-in-class logistics development in the heart of the Golden Triangle.”
The site will now be promoted for B2/B8 commercial development and Ashfield Land intends to submit a planning application to Harborough District Council at the earliest opportunity.
