The new distribution warehouse is situated on the site of the old Castle Donington Power Station; this superstructure was demolished in 1996.

• The site covers 167,665m²
• The power station substructure, bases and foundations have been excavated and crushed for re-use. 27,000m³ of concrete has been crushed and graded to produce Type 1, pipe bedding and cable sand.
• The presence of an old river bed cutting through the site led to an extensive group improvement scheme. The river bed covered an area of 22,000m². This was excavated to remove the soft alluvial clay. 76,000m³ was removed in total, this was then re-engineered back in 300mm layers to achieve a ground bearing pressure of 150KN/m².
• The total earthworks package included a cut of 67,000m³ and fill of 75,000m³
• 1400 linear metre of 2.2m diameter pipe has been installed; this means that the system can hold 5.3 million litres of rainwater.
• A new estate road (520m long) is being built alongside the site to adoptable highway standards.
• At the west end of the site there will be a new purpose built rail freight terminal. This will require a new line to be laid to connect to the rail network. The distance from connection to the terminal is 1.4Km and will comply fully with all current rail standards.
• The building is 25m to haunch, 28m to parapet and is over 900,000 sq ft which includes office and ancillary accommodation totalling 80,000 sq ft.
