Riverdale Park

Overview & Vision

The regeneration of the former McCormick Tractor site into a mixed-use major development will create a range of opportunities for residential, retail and employment alongside the riverbank and Wheatley Hall Road.

Home of the former McCormick Tractor factory, Harworth purchased the 112-acre industrial site in December 2015 and later secured outline consent to deliver a mixed-use scheme that will comprise 600 new homes and 200,000 sq ft of commercial space to be built out by 2026.

The masterplan capitalises on the site’s prime road frontage where the proposed commercial and retail uses will be focussed, in addition to positioning the residential plots alongside the river frontage to create a desirable waterside living location.

Development Progress

2015: Following acquisition, all buildings and structures that remained on site have now been demolished and a programme of extensive remediation and earthworks has been ongoing to create the first parcels of serviced land for sale. These works also include installing utilities, drainage and infrastructure to the site.

2018: The first parcel of land was sold to Arnold Clark to build a new 30,000 sq ft car showroom

2019: The first two serviced residential plots were sold to Barratt Homes and Taylor Wimpey to respectively deliver almost 400 new homes

2020: An adjacent commercial plot was sold to Erindale, who have constructed a Burger King and Taco Bell drive-thru unit. Harworth completed the direct development of a Costa Coffee drive-thru unit on one of the commercial plots. The 1,800 sq ft unit was let to Costa at practical completion and opened in November 2020

2021: A land parcel adjacent to the riverside was sold to Harron Homes to construct 139 new houses

2023: Harworth complete on three further land sales for roadside and employment uses
