Caldwell’s former Stoke HQ ready to be sold off
Administrator PKF Littlejohn Advisory has tasked Watling Real Estate with selling the failed civils contractor’s former operational base at Brick Kiln Lane.
Oliver Collinge and James Sleight of PKF Littlejohn Advisory were appointed joint administrators over the business on 15 January.
The business operated from Caldwell House in Warrington, a 6,000 sq ft, two storey office building on the well-established Centre Park.
The Midlands base in Stoke comprises a contractor’s yard, offices, workshops and a warehouse. The securely fenced site is self-contained and fronts Brick Kiln Lane.
Caldwell’s holdings also include further freehold commercial premises at Leonard Street, Stoke which are currently fully let.
Alex Sweetman, director at Watling Real Estate, said that the consultancy is currently assessing the properties with a view to bringing them to the market in the coming days.
Caldwell Construction was incorporated in 2007 and grew to employ over 400 people with a turnover of around £58m.
Specialisms included the construction of foundations, sewers, storm water attenuation systems, hard and soft landscaping as well as carriageways and footpaths.
