Stiles Harold Williams, acting on behalf of an institutional client, announces the recent letting of some 28,000 sq ft (2,601.2 sq m) of industrial premises to Brighton & Hove City Council, in partnership with Mears plc, for a 20-year lease term.  Mears is the contractor responsible for the majority of the City Council’s housing maintenance schemes and the need for new premises was considered paramount for the continuance of their successful working relationship with the City Council for the next two decades.  The building is to undergo extensive refurbishment, including a new glass atrium roof and will use green materials to create an eco-friendly building.

This letting sees one of the largest units in the Brighton area removed from the market, it having been vacant for many years.
