We have recently completed the letting of 1 Barn Way, Northampton, 12,428 sq ft to Burnetts Manufacturing on a long-term lease. The letting consolidates Burnett’s position at Lodge Farm Industrial Estate, and provides them with additional space aligned to their business strategy over the coming years. Staying on Lodge Farm Industrial Estate, we have also completed the letting of 20 Lodge Farm Trade Park to Plastics Express. We have recently commenced the marketing of Unit 17 at Lodge Farm Trade Park, 4,287 sq ft with joint agents Prop-Search, and have a number of parties interested in taking the unit.
