Freight specialist secures decade-long lease at Preston’s Walton Summit Industrial Park

Freight and haulage specialist, Montgomery Distribution, has agreed a new ten-year lease on the Alpha Building at Four Oaks Road, Walton Summit, Preston which they will occupy in addition to their existing facility on Green Place.

Montgomery Distribution will occupy the 131,486 sq f unit which benefits from an eaves height of 8.3 metres, 27 dock level loading doors and a separate additional 0.86 acre yard.

Walton Summit Industrial Estate is an established industrial location given its proximity to junctions 29/30 of the M6, Junction 9 of the M61 and Junction 1 of the M65, which provides easy access to the North West’s key motorway networks.

The landlord, Harworth, was represented by JLL and Pinkus & Co.

Robert Kos, Director at JLL said: “Walton Summit is a popular location with a low turnover of tenants. Given the lack of available stock in the wider Central Lancashire we received a strong level of interest from the outset.”
