Boot to kick-start final phase of landmark business park

DEVELOPER Henry Boot has appointed surveyor Garness Jones to market the final phase of one of Hull’s best-known business parks.

The project will see the development of the remaining 15 acres at Priory Park with new office, industrial and warehouse facilities.

Dave Garness, of Garness Jones, said: “Henry Boot has been working hard in the background to secure detailed planning consent for the various elements of the development and as a result of that the delivery time for interested occupants will be very quick. Priory Park has been a key part of the business landscape in Hull and East Yorkshire for nearly 20 years, safeguarding and creating jobs by supporting existing businesses and by attracting inward investors.

“It became the location of choice for major motor dealerships as they vacated their old premises and it also met the expansion needs of such businesses as MWS Business Management and The Insurance Partnership, which began in Hull city centre.

“The opening of Arco’s National Distribution Centre and the De Vere Village Urban Resort changed the skyline dramatically, but the plan was always to complete the project by developing the remaining land further east, and we are delighted to be involved in that.”

Ben Ward, a surveyor at Henry Boot, said: “Priory Park West was one of the first out-of-town business parks in the Hull area and quickly became a prestigious address in an ideal location right next to the A63.

“The heavy demand continued when we opened Priory Park East, but we have decided the time is right to take a fresh look at the local marketing of the site.”
