Mixed-use development plans unveilled

April 2010

HPG Developments plans to breathe new life into the 6 ½ acre former Project Office Furniture site on Ehringshausen Way in Haverhill.

Hamlet Green will be an exciting mixed-use development which regenerates this key gateway site into the town centre, which has been vacant since Workspace Office Solutions ceased operation and was demolished.   To the rear of the site, there will be new warehousing and business start-up units whilst towards the front of the site there are plans to deliver a new builder's merchant, new family restaurant, four retail units as well as car parking.  

Commenting on the proposals, William Jewson, Development Director at HPG, said: "Hamlet Green will not only bring this vacant site back into use, but it will help to enhance the regeneration that has already taken place in this part of Haverhill.  Hamlet Green will provide a great mix of new employment space, including units that are ideal for start-up businesses locally, plus retail space that will attract new brands into Haverhill that would complement, rather than compete with, the town centre. With high quality buildings, employment opportunities, new landscaping and other enhancements, we're confident that Hamlet Green will support the existing initiatives and aspirations for the town centre as a whole."  

Exhibition panels highlighting the plans have been erected in the foyer of the Tesco superstore and in the Haverhill Arts Centre in the High Street. The development team also distributed a leaflet to homes in the vicinity.
