* Freehold
The site boundary extends to approximately 2. 08 acres and consists of a
variety of vacant buildings and surrounding land. The former Lawrence shoe
factory, occupying a central position on the site is an imposing property,
albeit in a current state of disrepair, built circa 1837 before closing fully
in 1990. In addition, the factory cottages, which are semi - detached two storey
buildings, are located to the north west corner and face the prominent
Harborough Road and Gladstone Street.
There is a car park within the boundary located off New Street also. The
property and site have spent many years in the public eye with various schemes
discussed including a 43 - unit residential scheme consisting of one - to - five -
bedroom properties and potentially a preferred site for a commercial
supermarket user subject to planning permission being obtained.
The site is securely fenced with access from New Street and Gladstone Street.
Today the site occupies a prominent and central location in Desborough, close
to both residential properties and neighbouring businesses including Costa
Coffee and other local businesses.
Further information including Title plans, surveys, additional photos etc are
