Go ahead for COBHAM GATE

Cobham Gate is a prime employment site within Ferndown Industrial Estate which benefits from direct access to the A31 (T) dual carriageway (Ferndown bypass) This 25 acre site is the final allocated phase of the Ferndown and Uddens Industrial Estate which is an established business area covering over 150 acres and employing over 5,000 people. The area has a highly qualified local workforce particularly strong in hi tech engineering. Our planning application has been submitted after extensive consultation with a number of statutory bodies and it is expected that subject to satisfying the requirements of the adopted local plan enabling works will commence in September 2007 with the first buildings being ready for occupation in summer 2008. After a protracted planning case involving three Article 14 highway orders, a major surface water alteration scheme at adjacent land with European protection, together with reptile trans-location, East Dorset District Council has resolved to grant planning consent for 400,000 sq ft of B1, B2 and B8 development. Glenbeigh Developments is the developer with finance being provided by syndicated private equity arranged by Tritax, using a specialist professional team.
