The £7 million industrial unit phase delivered 90,000 sq ft of space across four separate buildings ranging in size between 18,500 sq ft and 26,350 sq ft. Each unit is self-contained and highly specified offering generous office provision, car parking and segregated yards.
The overall project is being delivered by Network Space in partnership with Homes England, St Helens Council and Liverpool City Region Combined Regional Authority.

Outline planning permission has been secured for the development of up to 120 residential units on the western side of Mere Grange, with a sale expected later in the year. Work on the second phase is expected to be complete in 2019.
Stephen Barnes, Managing Director (Development) at Network Space, said: "We have successfully forged a great partnership with Homes England, St Helens MBC and the Combined Authority to create an exciting proposition at Mere Grange and we are delighted to deliver the latest phase of its development.
"There remains a shortage of high-quality industrial space across the region and Mere Grange is excellently placed to capitalise. Our Agents B8 and CBRE are already in discussions with a number of occupiers and we expect quick take up of the new space."
Steve Rotheram, Metro Mayor for Liverpool City Region, said: "The first phase of Mere Grange reaching completion is an important milestone for a development which will contribute to the city region's economic growth as well as creating hundreds of jobs. I look forward to seeing the development continuing to progress."
