Richborough Commercial has submitted an outline planning application for the development of a 23.4 acre site in Ellistown, north west Leicestershire.
It has the potential to provide up to 29,160 sq. metres (314,000 sq. ft) of employment development floorspace within Use Classes B2 (general industrial) and B8 (storage or distribution) with ancillary E(g)(i) (business) floorspace, together with habitat creation landscaping and associated infrastructure.
The site, located on Midland Road, Ellistown, is adjacent to Bardon Hill and is some 3.5 miles from Junction 22 of the M1.
Nick Jones, Group Director at Richborough Commercial, said “We are very pleased to submit the application on behalf of our landowner.
“We look forward to working with North West Leicestershire District Council and its consultees to secure a positive outcome at planning committee in 2025, to be able to provide the range of commercial units to satisfy the needs of occupiers, the strong demand for which has been identified by both Richborough and the local authority.”
Richborough Commercial anticipates bringing the site to the market mid-2025.
