Hillwood Agree Terms for New Industrial Site Purchase in Bedford

Hillwood have agreed terms with Arqiva and Bedford Borough Council to acquire a 10.6 acre site, located at Interchange Way, Kempston, Bedford, MK42 7AZ.

Outline planning consent has been granted and Hillwood will be submitting a Reserved Matters application for a 100,000 sq ft single unit, which they propose to speculatively develop in 2026.

Bob Tattrie, Managing Director, for Hillwood UK commented, “We are delighted to have agreed terms on this super prime location, the scheme will attract a high number of new jobs and bring forward an unutilised brownfield site for distribution or manufacturing uses.  The site benefits from fast access to the main road network, particularly via the A421 Bedford Bypass and the A6.”

Hillwood are represented by agents Bidwells, Kirkby Diamond and T5REA.
