Exciting new-build garden centre underway


This time last year planning was approved to turn Bridgford Garden Centre into one of the largest destination garden centres in the UK. Fast forward a year and spades are in the ground and steel is in the workshop gearing up to deliver this exciting new-build garden centre near Nottingham.

The new garden centre will combine retail with catering options as well as an extension to an on-site indoor play area and café – providing a fantastic destination for the whole family.

Visitors will have 9,500m2 to browse in the main retail building, including a covered cold house plant area, with an additional 450m2 available in the extended play barn.

The garden centre will be constructed by Newspan Building Solutions and will be a steel portal frame design, providing a spacious and bright feel to the internal areas.

The front of the garden centre will have decorative glazing which will provide a distinguishable and attractive welcome to visitors.

Bridgford will open its doors in 2018.
