Nene Court Retail Park in Wellingborough is Northamptonshire’s shopping success story and is celebrating the news that fi ve more boutiques are set to open. An eclectic and exclusive array of mainly independent businesses are based at the former Victorian Gas Light factory site, dating back to 1833, which has been lovingly renovated and restored to now house bespoke boutiques.
To create a unique shopping experience and breathe new life into the old buildings, the family-owned site has been sympathetically restored and renovated with many original features retained. Marcel Binley and his family have always had the “vision” of what Nene Court could become. They took ownership in 1991 and placed Bestbuys here as the anchor for the shopping site.
Around 15 years ago, the renovation project started and, shop by shop, they were taken over by their tenants. Many of those original, independent businesses are still here, thriving and expanding. The Binley family wants everyone to know about Nene Court, its rich history and also how it is evolving for the future. The latest developments are that fi ve new bespoke businesses will be opening at Nene Court soon in addition to the 17 boutiques already present.
They are elated with how Nene Court is expanding and take great pride in watching up to 2,000 people enjoying themselves when the Court stages events. It was always the aim to create a lovely retail park and all share that vision and its success. Nene Court, The Embankment, is just off the A45 and open seven days a week with free parking.
