I see that as good news as it looks like the hall will now be preserved.

The storage plans look interesting too.

All a long way from when the Gillis-Shields family owned it - last I heard, they lived in a flat above the stables at Isley Walton just down the road from Donington Park having sold the manor at Isley Walton.

It has to be a good business move for the company and I imagine the upper echelon of competitors might like somewhere on site to rest their heads.
I hadn't appreciated the demise of the family fortunes.
