Following their purchase of the 2.9-acre site in 2020, and a
multi-million pound investment into the former mill complex, owners Matt Welsh
and Rob Thompson have secured a letting to Pure Technology Group, (PTG).
The expanding Leeds-based business has signed a 10-year lease to
create a landmark HQ within Anglia House, a 16,000 sq ft four-storey mill
building.
The deal was brokered by Leeds based property consultants, T1
Asset Management Ltd and WSB Property Consultants and is one of the largest
office lettings in the Leeds out of town market this year.
Anglia House, which has undergone extensive refurbishment, will
accommodate PTG’s existing 140 personnel while providing space for future
growth aspirations to a capacity of more than 250 people.
Welsh, joint owner of Holly Park Mills, said: “We’re delighted
to agree this significant deal with Pure Technology Group and welcome them as a
new occupier of Anglia House.
“The letting further helps us to deliver our vision to transform
Holly Park Mills by creating innovative office spaces within an attractive and
historic setting.”
The facilities on site at Anglia House will include an
auditorium, social spaces, technical workshops, collaboration zones, work cafes
and a bar.
Robin Beagley, partner at WSB, added: “The landlord of Holly
Park Mills has responded to the changing nature of the modern workplace by
creating innovative and inspiring office space that will accommodate the
long-term growth and flexible needs of the new tenant, PTG.
“Workspace needs to be aspirational and to provide an attractive
environment that will inspire businesses and staff, which Holly Park Mills
offers in abundance.”
