Harworth Group has secured a resolution to grant outline planning consent for circa 1.5m sq ft of industrial and logistics space and up to 300 new homes at its Cinderhill development in Derbyshire.
Located adjacent to the A38, the Cinderhill site was previously used as an iron foundry and for opencast coal extraction. The group’s proposals for the site include land remediation, site servicing and installation of high-quality infrastructure to facilitate the construction of the Grade A commercial units.
Harworth owns or controls the majority of the site through a combination of freehold ownership and under a planning promotion and marketing agreement.
Lynda Shillaw, chief executive of Harworth, said: “The receipt of planning at Cinderhill is a significant milestone as this complex site has involved careful masterplanning over the years alongside collaboration with a number of different stakeholders. This achievement highlights our specialist skillset and track record of securing planning and regenerating former industrial land.
“We look forward to playing a part in the delivery of a high-quality sustainable scheme in a region which has a strong manufacturing and logistics presence and where Harworth continues to see strong demand for our serviced land products.”
