Ground remediation assessments have been completed at the 31-acre Harrier Park site in Hucknall and an extensive four-week clean-up project is now underway at the former Rolls-Royce site.

The boundaries will also now be fully secured as TanRo ramps up its presence on the site with a 20-week programme of remedial groundworks set to start in the new year.

The business park has planning permission for 500,000 sq ft of warehouse/industrial space across six buildings. These six buildings offer unit sizes from as little as circa 40,000ft² to 280,000ft², with all units being available to buy or rent.

The site was formerly used as an aerodrome associated with the development of the famous Rolls-Royce Merlin engine during World War II followed by the world’s first successful vertical take-off in the 1950s with technology which in turn led to the Harrier ‘Jump Jet’ being developed.

James Richards, Development Director at Clowes Developments is marketing the site’s ‘design and build’ opportunities on a buy or let basis and said “with interest already high, it will not be long before remedial works turn into construction.”
