Lymedale Distribution Centre, Newcastle under Lyme
Project Details
The project was to Design and Build a 432,000 sq ft Regional Distribution Centre for Helioslough Ltd.
The brief was to construct a high bay warehouse, which nestled in the valley and blended with the surrounding countryside. On one side the scheme bordered a residential housing estate and this had to be catered for aesthetically, acoustically and from a landscaping point of view.
The Warehouse was 16 metres to the eaves, with a three storey office block, 2 continental level access doors, 4 normal size level access doors and 38 dock levellers.
Half of the site had previously been used for heavy engineering and indeed during the Second World War was used for the production of munitions. The other half of the site was subject to colliery working, a football pitch and an overgrown croft area, which contained a large amount of Japanese knotweed.
