Jackson, Green & Preston are delighted to offer to the market this exciting development opportunity located at the Northern end of the ever-popular Freeman Street, just a short walk to the port of Grimsby and with excellent bus links connecting Grimsby, the Freeport, Cleethorpes and beyond.
Freeman Street has long been a well regarding shopping destination and the site is located near the award-winning Freeman Street Market which has recently been named the best small indoor market in Britain.
With approximately 0.95 acres of brownfield land on offer, the opportunities are truly endless but a desire for leisure facilities has been identified however, all uses would be considered.
The land is being offered by way of a long ground lease subject to negotiation.
Grimsby Grimsby is a port town in North East Lincolnshire at the mouth of the Humber Estuary. The Port of Grimsby and Immingham is the UK’s largest port by tonnage handling around 12% of the UK’s cargo.
Serving a diverse range of industries, the port acts as a gateway to both the Northern Powerhouse and the Midlands Engine in the UK.
The Port of Grimsby is a major contributor to renewable energy including the offshore wind farms. The area is now a major base for global leaders in offshore renewable energy such as Ørsted, E.ON, and GLID/Siemens. The growth of the renewable energy industry in the UK has brought new economic opportunities to the Grimsby area.
Substantial funding has been secured over recent years allowing for the regeneration of Grimsby. North East Lincolnshire Council have created a multi-million-pound economic growth programme to develop up to 195 hectares of employment land helping to unlock new business investment for the area.
Some of the investments currently being considered and reviewed are:
• Renovating heritage buildings
• Finding new purpose through a range of strategic investments for historic port buildings
• Emerging UK Freeport opportunities that could open- up foreign investment and high value jobs for the wider area, with the ports of Grimsby and Immingham playing a key part of a Humber bid for Freeport status
• A direct rail connection from Grimsby and Cleethorpes to London are being actively considered
• Regeneration of Grimsby Town Centre
The Enrolled Freemen Of Grimsby The Landlord’s of the site are the Enrolled Freeman of Grimsby, a charity organisation whose roots are believed to date back to the 11th Century.
The Enrolled Freemen of Grimsby aim to support the redevelopment of the central area of Grimsby, with a strong passion in bringing the latest technological innovations to the Grimsby area.
A major development in the Enrolled Freemen’s vision of redevelopment came when they were granted total ownership of a part-dilapidated section of Freeman Street following a High Court ruling in 2018.
The vacant half of the site was subsequently demolished and in part forms the land currently on offer. The adjacent site houses the recently completed (2021) YMCA which saw a substantial £8.5 million investment providing a housing and community development including purpose-built spaces for training, activities, conferences and meeting facilities available for public use.
