Clearbell UK Strategic Trust (CST), a fund advised by Clearbell Capital, has agreed a lease with Royal Mail on a 71,612 sq ft warehouse on the Manton Wood Business Park in North Nottinghamshire. The letting was facilitated by property consultants Commercial Property Partners (CPP).

Royal Mail has agreed a five-year lease at Manton Wood, which has recently undergone a programme of refurbishment and improvement works.

The Manton Wood Business Park is located in Worksop, North Nottinghamshire, situated adjacent to the A1 with good road connections to both the north and south of the UK. Other occupiers in the vicinity include DHL, B&Q and Wilko’s national distribution centres, as well as national food manufacturing operators Cargill, Greencore and Samworth Brothers.
