This is a rare 35-acre freehold development opportunity within North Road Business Park, close to M53 Junction 6. The site sits beside a river and is framed by existing industrial uses, offering substantial scope for large-scale B2/B8-driven logistics, manufacturing or mixed commercial schemes.
An outline planning application (OUT/19/01633) has been submitted for up to 500,000 sq ft with ancillary B1(a) uses, which establishes realistic potential for masterplanning and phased delivery. Strong road links and expansive acreage make the plot well suited to occupiers or developers targeting regional distribution, last-mile logistics, or multi-unit industrial estates.
Buyers should note practical constraints: the surrounding area is classified as very deprived with average crime levels, broadband speeds reported as very slow, and local socio-economic indicators below regional averages. The planning position is outline only — detailed consents, infrastructure delivery, and site remediation will be required as part of implementation.
This freehold site offers a blank canvas for investors or operators prepared to manage planning, infrastructure and local market considerations. For large-scale industrial projects seeking scale, connectivity and waterside presence, the plot presents clear long-term potential but requires capital and development expertise to realise value.
