HUT announces Deepdale deals

Hercules Unit Trust (HUT) has announced three new deals at Deepdale Shopping Park, in Preston. They are Marks & Spencer, which has taken an extra 5,000 sq ft at ground floor level to create a store totalling 24,471 sq ft, WH Smith, which has moved to a new 5,000 sq ft store and Clarks, which has moved into a larger 5,000 sq ft unit, previously partly occupied by WH Smith.

John Maddison, asset manager at British Land, said: “These new lettings have created a new and improved experience for shoppers in Preston and offer a good mix of lifestyle brands, especially with the exciting addition of the Marks & Spencer food hall.”

Wilkinson Williams & Harvey Spack Field acted on behalf of HUT across the three deals and CBRE represented Marks & Spencer. Curson Sowerby Partners acted on behalf of Clarks and DTZ represented WH Smith.
