Gregory Property Group, in partnership with Commercial Development Projects Limited of Elland, has acquired a 10-acre development site at Junction 36 of the M1 at Dearne Valley Parkway, Rockingham, from Barnsley Council.

With planning permission secured, the developers plan to construct three high-specification industrial units totalling approximately 125,000 sq. ft. The development aims to enhance industrial accommodation in the area and contribute to economic growth.

Work on the project is set to commence before the end of February 2025, with completion expected by February 2026. Marshall Construction Ltd has been appointed as the contractor for the build.

Strategically located just a few hundred yards from Junction 36 of the M1, near the Dearne Valley Link Road, the site falls within the Hoyland North Masterplan framework, supporting the region’s long-term development vision.

John McGhee, Managing Director at Gregory Property Group, said: "The site is a high profile and popular location for industrial occupiers because of its excellent transport links and local labour force. The design which includes various tree, shrub and flower planting schemes to improve the biodiversity of the area will make this a very pleasant place to work, and we expect demand for the units to be high."
