Property firm acquires Pendle Court

Commercial property development and investment company, Pendle Projects Ltd, has acquired a 1.5 acre site in Nelson in order to create a new industrial park on the M65 corridor.

Plans are to develop three or four industrial/warehousing units and construction of the buildings is expected to start in January 2017.

Mark Taylforth, owner of Pendle Projects, said: “We’ve had our eye on this land for some time, but since outline planning was granted in June 2015, the site was even more attractive.

“Pendle Court is literally seconds off the M65 and provides access to Lancashire and beyond via a number of motorways, so we’re looking forward to bringing these buildings to the market and delivering a new scheme for the county.”

“When we bought the site, as an investment, in 2003 we knew it had development potential and we’re sure that Pendle Projects Ltd will work hard to deliver a successful scheme.” With appointment of the main contractor expected before Christmas, building work should be complete by October 2017.
