Pinewood Studios Development Framework

Preparing a long term development framework for this iconic world leading studio complex

Location:
Pinewood Studios, Buckinghamshire
Status:
planning application submitted
Size:
83 ha
Scale:
100,000 sq m

Pinewood is an iconic and world leading studio complex in Buckinghamshire. A long term development framework is now the subject of a major planning application co-ordinated and submitted by Turley Associates.

The growing success of the global feature film/TV and screen based media market and the centre of excellence that is Pinewood provides a strong commercial justification for the proposed expansion.

The sustainable economic growth priority of the Government and its focus on international market growth in the digital and creative sectors provides a policy context of support.

Our work focused on a thorough analysis of the Green Belt context of the site and the presentation of the ‘very special circumstances’ necessary to justify the development of around 100,000 sq m of studio facilities in the Green Belt.

The PSDF application was co-ordinated by our Manchester and London offices working closely with Pinewood and the professional advisory team*.
