Cockwells commences redevelopment of Mylor Creek Boatyard
The ERDF-funded project to transform Cockwell’s outdated collection of sheds at Mylor Creek Boatyard into a purpose-built, low environmental impact HQ has begin in earnest with demolition, ground works and the commencement of the construction phase.
The creation of a 1,058 sqm BREEAM Excellent, modern, accessible workspace will enable Cockwells to increase production; employ more highly skilled craftsmen; invest in further staff training; attract more private sector investment; access new UK and international markets; and enhance Cornwall’s competitive advantage in the marine sector.
In the meantime, Cockwells will be temporarily located at the former Vospers site at Ponsharden on the outskirts of Falmouth but the company’s contact details will remain the same.
