Rachel Reeves MP visits Springfield Mills

Rt Hon Rachel Reeves, Labour MP for Leeds West and Pudsey, has visited Springfield Mills in Farsley on Tuesday to see the progress on a new development being built for growing businesses.

They are 8 new hybrid units being constructed to help fulfil the demand from local and regional commercial enterprises, who are increasingly looking for modern and flexible spaces to suit their evolving needs.

The units each consist of a ground floor workshop and first floor office space with dedicated parking. The attractive units will fit seamlessly into the mill site, incorporating a mix of traditional and modern design, and including many energy saving measures.

RT Hon Rachel Reeves, MP for Leeds West and Chancellor of the Exchequer says “It was a pleasure to visit Springfield Mills and see the work they're doing to expand their units. Farsley continues to attract more inward investment from businesses, creating jobs and helping grow the local economy.’

Chris Pratt, Director, Gaunts Ltd, who run Springfield Mills and who are based at the site says, “We receive many enquiries from businesses for this kind of space, so it made sense from a practical and environmental point of view, to use the existing land we have here. We’re pleased to be working with regional firms  OGL Construction, Shelby Group and architects Bowman Riley from the start on all aspects of design, build, costings and detailed plans.”

Any businesses interested in the units, should contact John Giles on 0113 236 3555.
