A business park near Oswestry is set to expand after plans to build three new commercial units were revealed.

The proposal for Mile End Business Park on Shrewsbury Road, Aston, near Oswestry, would deliver an additional 450 square metres of floorspace for light industrial or commercial use.

The 0.13-hectare site forms part of the wider business park, which is already home to a number of commercial premises.

Richard Thompson and David Giles have submitted the application through their agent, Henry Beddoes of Henry Beddoes Architectural Design.

Planning documents state that the units would be constructed using corrugated sheet metal and are intended for B2 general industrial use.

The businesses that would occupy the units have not yet been identified, as future operations will depend on the eventual leaseholders.

Six on-site parking spaces are included in the plans.

Supporting documents suggest the development could support employment growth in the area.

It is estimated that the completed units could accommodate the equivalent of six full-time jobs.

The application is currently under consideration by Shropshire Council.

If approved, the development would expand commercial capacity at Mile End Business Park, offering new space for small businesses and industrial operators.

A decision from Shropshire Council is expected by mid-November.

A similar proposal for the site, which was submitted in November 2025, was withdrawn earlier this month.

Meanwhile, plans for a change of use for one of the buildings at the site from B2 to E (gym) were approved in August 2025.
