Former DVSA Test Centre, Watnall, Testing Station, Main Road, Watnall, NG16 1JF

An opportunity to acquire a former DVSA HGV Testing Station with associated buildings and surrounding hardstanding, amounting to approximately 4.76 acres (1.93 hectares) in the well located village of Watnall.

The site is located in Watnall, a suburban settlement northwest of Nottingham city centre, and comprises a purpose-built facility formerly operated by the DVSA for the statutory testing and inspection of heavy goods vehicles, buses, coaches, and for conducting vocational driving tests. The existing buildings extend to approximately 14,100 sqft (1,310 sqm).

The site presents clear potential for alternative commercial or residential development, subject to planning.

Watnall is a suburban settlement located approximately 6 miles (10 km) to the northwest of Nottingham city centre, and forms part of the wider Nottinghamshire conurbation.

The area benefits from good road connectivity, with Junction 26 of the M1 motorway located around 2 miles to the west, providing direct access to the national motorway network. The A610 is also nearby, linking Watnall with both Nottingham city centre and the M1.

The surrounding area is mixed in character. To the north the adjoining land is occupied by Fernwood Transport and an HGV training site. To the south
and south-east along Main Road, the character is primarily industrial with occupiers including Hovis and Aero Fabrications, as well as allotments
situated immediately to the south. To the west are established residential neighbourhoods and community facilities, while the wider corridor along
the A610 contains a range of employment and light industrial uses.
