A property company which bought a Stoke-on-Trent pottery factory last year has put the building on the market again.
M20 Group, based in the North West, acquired the former Dudson factory in Scotia Road, Tunstall, last year after the 220-year-old firm collapsed into administration in 2019.
Some of the 'obsolete' parts of the site were demolished earlier this year to create better access and more loading space for vehicles to get it ready for the market.
Richard Mounsey, director at Mounsey Chartered Surveyors, said: "The demolition work which took place earlier this year was to remove some obsolete parts and create better access, more loading space for vehicles and general appearance to get it ready for the market; and we are now in the process of seeking new tenants.
"There are lots of benefits to the site, there’s a huge electricity supply and it’s located close to other well-known occupiers including Travis Perkins, the Royal Mail delivery office and Dimensions Leisure Centre."
He added: "The building can be taken on as a whole or be rented out in individual portions, but we are keen to get it let. It would be nice to see a manufacturer in part, if not all of it.
“As a whole, the property market is performing quite well at the moment, particularly in the warehouse sector on the back of the recent boom in online retail.
“I would expect this building to get snapped up within the next six months. It has only just gone to market but we have already had about half-a-dozen promising enquiries.
“It was really sad what happened to Dudson, but hopefully there will be a nice end to the tale.”
Historic pottery firm Dudson fell into administration in April 2019 and all 385 employees lost their jobs. It collapsed with debts of around £24 million.
