Set within the grounds of the 32 acre site at Grove Business Park, Oxfordshire, GBP 1 was the first speculative development to be built as an outcome of the 2016 consented masterplan. Split over three buildings, the development contains 10 no. industrial units delivering an overall GIA 35,940 sqft of B1 and B8 class uses. Ranging in size from 1,975sqft to 6,757sqft, the units provide a mix of light industrial warehouse with fitted first floor offices, and flexible two storey business units suitable for industrial, office, assembly, R&D, laboratory and storage uses.

For this project, the buildings were designed as simple forms to facilitate functionality and adaptability. Materials and building methods were also chosen specifically for their ease of use, speed and offsite precision. The site layout and massing retain and enhance wider viewpoints into and out of the park, whilst creating a new community hub in the south-western corner of the park.

The new complex has enabled the first phase of relocation and growth amongst established tenants. The ongoing refurbishment of the existing building stock, in conjunction with new investment, has and will continue to regenerate Grove Business Park, enabling future growth within the Science Vale UK enterprise zone.
