Peel Land tables revised plans for 1.3m sq ft St Helens industrial
Summary
Peel Land has submitted a revised outline application for Haydock Point, a 1.3m sq ft industrial and logistics scheme in St Helens on more than 100 acres of Green Belt land near Junction 23 of the M6. The new proposal is smaller than the earlier rejected version and includes highway works, including a new 1km road, alongside claims of economic and employment benefits.
Why it matters
The scheme involves Green Belt land, a major planning consideration for surveyors assessing development potential, planning risk and site constraints. It also includes infrastructure and access changes that may affect valuation, viability and local market conditions.
Key points
- Revised outline plans have been submitted to St Helens Council for Haydock Point.
- The scheme would deliver 1.3m sq ft of manufacturing and logistics space on Green Belt land.
- The proposal is smaller than the earlier 1.8m sq ft version that was dismissed on appeal.
- A new 1km road and wider highway improvements are proposed to support the development.
- Peel Land says the project could generate jobs, GVA growth and local construction spend.
