Proposals tabled for 115,000 sq ft Stockport industrial 

Network Space and the local council want to create Cheadle Eco Business Park, a sustainable employment complex off Bird Hall Lane. 

A planning application for the 115,000 sq ft project, supported by £4.4m of Stockport’s £13m Town Fund award, has been submitted to the council. 

Designed by Aew Architects, the scheme would see three units built on a seven-acre site close to Junction 2 of the M60. 

Stockport is targeting a BREEAM ‘outstanding’ or ‘excellent’ certificate for Cheadle Eco Park. 

To learn more, search for reference number DC/090553 on Stockport Council’s planning portal. Spawforths is advising on planning and Wilde Consultants is providing structural, civil and highway engineering services. 

Last year, Stockport selected Network Space as the development manager for the project. 

Network Space is currently undertaking a similar project in Altrincham where the company is redeveloping the former Cartwright trailer manufacturing site into 205,000 sq ft of industrial space.
