Seven units already under offer
The first three of the light industrial properties being developed on the Bexhill Enterprise Park have reached an important construction milestone – with the steel frames completed and roofs installed. Seven of the forthcoming units are already under offer and are set to be occupied in 2026.
The industrial units stand to the northwest of Combe Valley Way on the Bexhill Enterprise Park North (as shown below), where we’ve installed utilities and built site roads leading off Haven Brook Avenue to make development possible.
The units themselves are being built by our development partner, Westcott Leach. They will each provide between 2,228 and 14,879 sq ft (207 – 1,382 sq m) of manufacturing floor space.
Westcott Leach started construction work in 2024 and expects to complete the first three buildings by early next year. The company is also undertaking groundworks ready to build a further 16 units.
There has been considerable interest in the forthcoming properties, with seven units already under offer and set to be occupied in 2026.
Over time, Westcott Leach plans to develop a total of 20 industrial units on the Bexhill Enterprise Park, surrounded by parking and landscaping, providing 85,000 sq ft (7,897 sq m) of floorspace and accommodating up to 500 employees.
The properties are designed to address the severe shortage of modern manufacturing premises in East Sussex, which has been constraining the growth of local firms and preventing companies from moving to the county. They will add considerably to economic activity in the Bexhill area.
The industrial units join the other developments we’ve delivered so far on the Enterprise Park: Glovers House, now the HQ of leisure company Park Holidays UK; the High Weald House business centre, home to several small and medium companies – with some offices still available; and a range of serviced development sites.
The Bexhill Enterprise Park is part of the urban extension of Bexhill being rolled out across 66 acres (27 ha) to the north of the town. This includes the creation of local roads and housing, with scope for up to 600,000 sq ft (55,742 sq m) of business premises and 2,000 new homes.
