Warehouse landscape

Seen from the middle of the road, an empty highway landscape is seen at night alongside a giant generic warehouse wall at the DIRFT warehouse logistics park in Daventry, Northamptonshire England. The tarmac is dark and the newly-painted white painted lines stand out. This 365 acre site off Junction 18 of the M1 motorway is a hub for road, rail and service infrastructure, some 2.3m sq.ft. of distribution and manufacturing floorspace had been constructed by 2004 and occupiers including Tesco’s, Tibbett & Britten plc, Ingram Micro, Royal Mail, the W.H. Malcolm Group, Eddie Stobart Ltd, Wincanton and Exel, have been attracted to this unique logistics location.
