Title: Workshop Space Offered
Post by: bigbenbird on 02 October 2012, 17:14

Hi

I am new here but have been a long time Golf enthusiast, and a member of numerous other forums

I am just about to take occupancy of a large industrial unit to store/work on my projects.

I have at least 2 decent sized workspaces left, that I thought may of been of interest to a like minded enthusiast.

The unit is in Shafton, near Royston, Barnsley South Yorkshire.

If your looking for such a space then please feel free to contact me

Certainly not in Yorkshire, whatever quality it is.

I need to ask a question of anyone that reads this thread:-

Is the price too dear?

Considering what is offered and what will be offered in the future. I Still have to contribute nearly £300 per month to be able to offer the price I have.

I would like your honest opinions

What price?

Good point Sam. I am running this thread on a couple of forums and got myself all out of sync

Looking to be about £125-150 per month

That will include bills etc. 24hr hr access and no working hour restrictions. Includes a bench and storage cupboard. As and when the unit is up and running, (fully subscribed) I will be putting in a 2 post ramp and other larger equipment/tools for members to use.

I hope to reduce rent once full running costs are known and the unit is fully subscribed and equipped.

Kitchenette, w/c and office also in unit

The estate has 24hr security.

Let me know what you think?

Many thanks Sam

I understand the distance may be an issue..........

I have been trying to get the spare space occupied for a while now and it seems that everyone wants space until there is space on offer

Just a thought..... but how about running it as a club, get 10 or so folks to join up on a subscription, an can book space an ramp as an when required?

Also have you got this on South Yorkshire Dubbers?

@ Jord

Not heard of South Yorkshire Dubbers so I'll look at that later

I was already planning to have a couple of use as and when type bays. The unit divides nicely into 8 working bays and a ramp area and an as a couple of as and when bays.......... But it might be some thing to look into...

Many thanks

Price is about right - I pay £80 a month all in with 24hr access, but no bench etc so had to provide my own stuff.

Just for info.....

The bigger unit is no longer available to rent. But I can still accommodate all those already interested, and have s space spare.

Same location etc etc.... Just fewer working areas......

Got the keys on Friday and have pretty much moved in……….

So much to do, organise the spaces, rewire the ring main for more outlets, paint walls and floor etc etc

Seems my cars won’t be getting much attention for a while, but I’m sure it will be worth it in the end. Lads are already making use of the space………..

I am no longer looking for anymore members, I have enough for now, but if you’re in the need for space in the Barnsley area then please PM me and I’ll let you no the space situation.

Pictures and ‘Unit’ build thread to be added at some point

Thanks again for all the support and constructive comments
