The factory demolition

The former Maxell factory on the edge of Telford has been demolished in order for further houses to be built at the Charlton Gardens development in Apley.

Countryside Partnerships, the UK’s leading mixed-tenure developer, started work to demolish the 183,000 sq ft factory in April with the help of McAuliffe Group.

Phil McHugh, Managing Director, North West Midlands, said: “The demolition of the Maxell factory is a major milestone for Charlton Gardens, clearing the way for 285 new homes that will provide high-quality living environments for many families in the region, who will be able to enjoy an exceptional lifestyle and a green outlook.
