Location
The Old Framing Yard is located on the north western side of Nickley Wood Road just north of its junction of Church Lane approximately ¾ of a mile south east of Shadoxhurst, a small village of approximately 1,000 inhabitants which itself lies some 4 miles south west of Ashford. This is a remote rural location not suited to heavy industrial, but has long been connected with the timber products industry and would be suitable for that and related uses. Ashford, one of Kent’s designated growth centres, currently has a population of approximately 75,000 inhabitants and is set to grow substantially in the next 20 years. The town is centrally located within the county, benefitting from a fine communications network via the A20/M20 and five mainline railways. Ashford International Passenger station can give direct access to northern continental Europe via Eurostar and London is some 38 minutes distant via HS-1
