The buildings are currently let to Rockwell Automation until June 2017 at a rental income of £375,000 per annum exclusive.

Neil Sinclair the Chief Executive of Palace Capital commented:

"Following on from our sales announced on 24 February 2017, this is another example of our brand of active management enabling us to recycle our capital and to create significant value for our shareholders. This property had limited potential and, being uncharged, it enables us to invest the monies to be received in more suitable and strategic income producing opportunities."
