Wilkinson Williams

We acquired this 50,000 sq ft foodstore investment in 2000 for Legal & General. Latterly, we became aware that the freehold of this property could potentially be acquired from the fund. We enjoy a good relationship with the food retailers Morrisons, and mentioned the potential to acquire this property, just prior to their year end; which was attractive to them. A price was agreed in early January 2008 at £21.264 million and a simultaneous exchange and completion took place 2 weeks thereafter.
