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.
