Planners approve major project at Hillier's Newbury site

West Berkshire Council have approved plans for a major extension at Hillier’s Newbury garden centre.

 

 

More than 2,500sq.m. of additional retail space is planned, almost trebling the existing area, housed in a new glass-fronted building with apex roofline that will also host concession businesses as well as a farm shop and coffee shop. The entrance and parking area will be improved and enlarged.

Work will begin in the summer  and completed in time for the peak spring season in 2021.

 

“We are delighted to have the green light for this extension project,” said Chris Francis, Hillier garden centre and wholesale nurseries director. “A few years ago, we undertook a shop refit at Newbury and introduced our popular Mulberry & Thyme Restaurant, which have contributed to the success of the garden centre. This extension project will take the location to a whole new level.”
