Winchester wins

Old established market towns and old established cities in the UK have often avoided the worst of the economic downturn. That appears to be true of Winchester which, said Goadsby’s Annelies Culley, “is still proving to be fairly resilient.”
She notes the “steady demand for city centre offices.” In particular she mentions the refurbished Athenia House, Trafalgar House and St Swithuns as being in demand. “There has been a lot of excitement regarding the proposed Silver Hill development in the city centre. The mixed use scheme will include high quality offices, retail and residential accommodation. The industrial market is still seeing a good level of enquiries for premium space.” Goadsby has also recently analysed the market in another market town, Romsey where it has seen “a positive start to 2011 with a number of office lettings.” Goadsby’s Ben Welch said: “The market town of Romsey offers an attractive working environment and good access to Winchester and Southampton.”
