Scope
Description
:Stroud District Council wishes to procure a developer partner to deliver its Brimscombe Port development. Brimscombe Port was at one time the largest inland port in the Country dating back to the 1780’s. Following the decline in canals the Port became redundant. The canal was in-filled after the Second World War and the site developed as an industrial estate during the 1960/70’s. Today the industrial estate has been demolished, ready for redevelopment , the Listed Port Mill and salt warehouse add to the site's spectacular setting
SDC is leading on the delivery of the redevelopment of Brimscombe Port in conjunction with Stroud Valleys Canal Company (SVCC) and Homes England (HE), to reinstate the canal and provide a mixed use residential led development on a ten-acre site. Please see Procurement documents for further details.
