SITE AREA
The site was purchased in two distinct phases over a period of 5 years. The first phase was purchased in 2016 and spans circa 7.2 acres (2.9 hectares). This has since been sold to sophisticated
investors and will be promoted through the local plan, along with the new phase, in due course. The new phase is around 10.5 acres and lies to the South of the previous site, in addition to sharing a border with the serene lake.
