Refurbishment of iconic Copperworks site completes

Commercial lettings specialist and landlord Towngate has completed the refurbishment and rebranding of an historic property in Leeds.

Previously occupied by the world-renowned metal manufacturer Yorkshire Copper Works until 1980, Towngate acquired the site in 2003.

The firm has now completed a renovation and rebranding operation, preparing the 300,000 sq ft space and development land for a new tenant.

Towngate’s property manager Tom Lamb said: “We’re delighted with the overhaul of this historic property, and are excited to bring it back to the market. Whilst we have taken care of the key structural refurbishment, we have intentionally left the warehouse as a blank canvas, enabling modifications to suit a new tenant’s requirements.

“This site presents a truly unique industrial letting opportunity, and all interested parties now have the opportunity to visit the building for a tour.”

Mirfield-based digital marketing agency, The Bigger Boat, carried out the rebranding of the property, which has included the production of illuminated signage, a lettings brochure and a new website.

The expansive site is available to let in its entirety to a single occupier, and includes industrial warehouse accommodation, two-storey ancillary office buildings and a 287-space car park, along with 11 acres of expansion land.
