LOCATED CLOSE to Port of Blyth, the 126-acre West Hartford Park sits within the Energy Central Partnership cluster, which promotes South East Northumberland as a centre for offshore wind, renewable energy, clean technology and advanced manufacturing.
The outline application submitted at the end of last year proposes units ranging from 40,000 ft2 to 532,000 ft2, available on freehold or leasehold terms, alongside offices, retail, education facilities, a petrol station, and R&D space.
Arlington said the development could create more than 2,000 jobs and generate in excess of £150m of investment into the regional economy.
The site will be delivered in phases, with more than 35% of the site dedicated to green space.
Joint agents are CBRE and HTA Real Estate.
