Light industrial to let

Main Street, Egremont CA22

Location
Egremont is positioned within the county of Cumbria in the north west of England. The
town sits towards the west coast in the county, approximately 6 miles south of
Whitehaven and conveniently positioned approximately 5 miles north of the Sellafield
nuclear plant facility, one of the largest employers in the county.
Egremont town centre is largely made up of small-scale retail operators, plus some
national representation through the likes of Betfred, Greggs, Heron Foods and Co-Op.
In addition, there are a large number of private independent retailers for various cafés, sandwich bars and barber shops. The town benefits hugely from the large number of
contractors working out of Sellafield Monday to Friday.
Empire Buildings sits immediately off Main Street and benefits from a pedestrian cut
through route. Vehicular access is via Market Street.
