New development in the heart of Cheshire
With quaint canals and with two rivers flowing through it, Northwich is located in the centre of the Cheshire Plain. A thriving town since Roman times and well known for its rock salt mining history, the market town is characterised as much by historic old houses as its mineral exports. Voted one of the best places to live in the UK (2014), this story of success looks set to continue as the area this year becomes home to an innovative development in the form of a flourishing new retail and leisure quarter, starting from late summer.
Covering over 28,000 square metres and with open spaces for use by restaurant customers, cinema goers and shoppers taking a break, Baron’s Quay will create local jobs. Convenient on-site parking will accommodate nearly a thousand cars - free of charge. Among some of the early signings in the £80 million development are ASDA and Marks & Spencer, along with a five-screen cinema complex to be operated by Odeon. Other exciting announcements are expected shortly as the first phase of this exciting new project comes to life well in time for autumn and Christmas shopping.
The developers see this shopping and leisure development as complementary to Northwich town centre - a place people will choose to visit, shop conveniently, enjoy a choice of six restaurants and – above all – to enjoy the convenience.
The setting has been carefully considered and planned to make the most of the attractive riverside setting, for visitors and shoppers to enjoy the relaxing waterside views.
Conveniently located for easy access from the M6 and M56 motorways, Northwich enjoys good road links to Macclesfield, Nantwich and Stockport, near Manchester. The beautiful city of Chester is just 18 miles to the west.
