The transformation of the former munitions site in Hereford into a dedicated business incubation centre has triumphed at the top Midlands property awards. 

The Shell Store, located on Skylon Park, Hereford, won the Commercial Development of the Year category at the Insider West Midlands Property Awards, which took place in Birmingham. 

The awards attracted a record number of entries from across the region, but the £7.3m Shell Store project beat tough competition to win the accolade in the 21st edition of the awards. 

The judges commented on the project saying: “This unique scheme stood out not only because the redevelopment was handled sensitivity, but the character, as well as parts of the framework of the original building were both retained and celebrated. A restoration project to be proud of.”
