Beckwith Knowle Business Park, Harrogate

About Beckwith Knowle Business Park

This important, strategically located commercial development is targeted at maintaining businesses in Harrogate, attracting new companies and providing a range of office and hi-tech accommodation. The scheme will ensure Harrogate can retain and grow its workforce both in scale and skills.

For detailed information please visit the dedicated website http://www.beckwithknowle.co.uk/

The site will potentially be developed in 4 separate Phases:

Phase 1 being 3 acres sold to the NHS;

Phase 2 being 3 acres offered as a whole or in part for Care / Extra Care development;

Phase 3 represents 3 acres fronting Beckwith Head Road, likely to be developed for Office Use; and

Phase 4 is the area immediately to the rear of Phase 3 and likely to comprise Office / Light Industrial / Hybrid Use.

Location

The site is located approximately 1.5 miles to the west of Harrogate and adjacent to Cardale Park, which already accommodates around 4,000 employees with firms such as Vp plc, Covance, Sanderson Bramall, Euro Car Parts, Munchkin, Jelf Insurance (formerly Bluefin), LDHL Group, High Street TV, Redcentric and Succession Group.

There is a workforce “on the doorstep” and as part of the development around the site there are proposals for the upgrading of the main Otley Road to the Town Centre, to the west and to Leeds. Leeds Bradford Airport lies approximately 10 miles to the south west.

It is a particularly important location on the west side of Harrogate, given the close proximity to recently consented residential development sites which will potentially accommodate c. 2,500 units over the next 3 to 5 years. Development has already commenced on Harlow Grange (Taylor Wimpey for 121 units) & Bluecoat Farm (David Wilson Homes/Redrow plus Persimmon for 600 units).
