In a statement to accompany its full year results, Harworth said it had made progress in 2025 on works at Skelton Grange in West Yorkshire to deliver serviced land for a hyperscale data centre for Microsoft, “where we expect a further £53.2m payment, for the second phase of the sale in the next 12 months”.
Lynda Shillaw, CEO of Harworth, commented: “Harworth is at the intersection of some of the UK’s most powerful trends, including data, advanced technologies, reindustrialisation and clean growth. Land at scale, suitably zoned and power-enabled, is key to accessing emerging market opportunities such as data
centres.”
