Hams Hall Distribution Park
After the Hams Hall Power station site was cleared, Powergen accepted various European and Central Government grants to allow a consortium of construction companies including Alfred McAlpine to construct a new industrial estate called Hams Hall Distribution Park,
The 430 acres (1.7 km2) site includes road (M42) and rail access (through the Hams Hall Rail Freight Terminal).
In 2011 the site housed clients including E.ON, Sainsbury's, BMW (engine manfucturing plant), DHL, ABB Group, Chubb, BEKO, EXEL and Wincanton.

Famous quotes containing the words hall, distribution and/or park:
“I was afraid the waking arm would break
From the loose earth and rub against his eyes
A fist of trees, and the whole country tremble
In the exultant labor of his rise;”
—Donald Hall (b. 1928)
“The man who pretends that the distribution of income in this country reflects the distribution of ability or character is an ignoramus. The man who says that it could by any possible political device be made to do so is an unpractical visionary. But the man who says that it ought to do so is something worse than an ignoramous and more disastrous than a visionary: he is, in the profoundest Scriptural sense of the word, a fool.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“The park is filled with night and fog,
The veils are drawn about the world,”
—Sara Teasdale (1884–1933)
