New plans have been lodged to develop a vast industrial park.

Royal London Asset Management Property and developer Graftongate are working together on the scheme which could see 52 acres of land west of Coventry turned into a logistics and warehousing complex.

A reserved matters planning application has been submitted for the speculative development, called Pickford Gate, which would contain 645,000 sq ft of employment space off the A45 bypass.

The scheme proposes the construction of 14 units ranging in size from 8,266 sq ft to 121,223 sq ft for industrial, logistics, manufacturing and R&D uses.

The estate will also have a new road junction off Pickford Green Lane, connecting to the A45 dual carriageway.

Subject to consent, work will start on the first phase in the autumn and is expected to take around a year to complete.

There is a wider masterplan for the local area which includes 2,400 new homes, a primary school, community facilities and green spaces.
