Business park on historic estate fully let following trio of deals

A BUSINESS park on an historic estate between York and Selby is now fully occupied following a trio of lettings, bringing the total number of jobs created at the site to 130.

Three companies have recently relocated to Escrick Park Estate, which has been owned and managed by the Forbes Adam family for the past 350 years.

Seven redundant farmsteads on the park, east of the A19, have undergone a £1.4m refurbishment, and the new occupiers include Dream Time Baby, Joy’s Bella Bridesmaids and Silver and Stone Jewellery Design.

Charles Forbes Adam, the owner and developer of Escrick Park, said: “We are delighted to welcome these three thriving companies to our business park, especially as that means we are now full. Their arrival is a ringing endorsement of the quality of our rural offices, which are attracting new occupiers in challenging, post-Brexit economic times.

“We are tremendously proud of creating a serious business park, with top-class facilities, within a rural idyll. We believe Escrick Park, which comprises a number of self-contained hi-spec office developments and 14 units for light industry, has an exceptional and inspiring working environment.”
