Time and Tide - Commercial developments lead regeneration of South Lakeland

Developer unveils environmentally and economically sustainable projects
Time and Tide has announced plans to create two commercial developments that will help regenerate the rural economy in the Kendal and South Lakeland areas.
The Lancaster-based company is working on plans to develop a 50,000 sq ft low energy, low carbon project, at Halton Mills, just outside of Lancaster. In line with local and regional economic strategies, the development is designed to attract inward investment and help diversify the rural economy. With space for approximately 4300 m2 of lettable floor space the scheme will incorporate 44 high quality units in managed office environment.
This particular development represents the second commercial phase of company’s £61 million redevelopment of the entire Halton Mills site. Over the next four years the company will transform the redundant brownfield site into a mixed-use development of over 200 residential units and 140,000 sq ft of commercial space. Plans for this current phase were submitted in May 2007 with a view to construction starting in September 2007.
In line with Time and Tide’s commitment to responsible regeneration a number of measures have been taken to make the development sustainable from an ecological as well as economic point of view. Ground source heat pumps, provision for solar panels, maximum use of natural light and a sedum grass roof will reduce carbon emissions and minimise energy use. Furthermore, the use of locally sourced materials wherever possible will ensure that the design of the building remains sympathetic to its rural surroundings.
Time and Tide worked closely with Lancashire Rural Futures, the body charged with assisting the regeneration of the rural economy in Lancashire, to draw up the plans. John Welbank, of LRF said, “Time and Tide’s plans for commercial space at Halton Mills are a perfect illustration of the positive role that developers can play in the regeneration of rural communities. Lancashire Rural Futures works to address the misconception of the rural economy as being exclusively farming and tourism. It is essential that we attract knowledge-based, high growth businesses into rural areas in order to regenerate the communities, as well as the economies. From this point of view, Time and Tide’s development at Halton Mills is a real step forward.”
Elsewhere in the South Lakeland area, the company has also submitted plans to create 42,000 sq ft of high quality office and workshop space at a site directly across from the South Lakeland Gateway Project, just off Junction 36 of the M6. Moss End Business Village will comprise 7 large build units and conversion of a Grade II listed barn into five smaller spaces.
“We’re very excited about both these developments”, said John Asplin, Managing Director at Time and Tide. “As with all our projects, we are realising a commitment to sustainable communities and responsible regeneration through a progressive approach to architecture and design. The combination of ecological and economic sustainability that Halton Mills and Moss End Business Village represents is a perfect example of this.”
