One of Peterborough’s most iconic and recognisable historic buildings, Hempstead Barn, is officially on the market after nearly three decades of continuous use. With deep roots in the city’s Hampton development, the property offers a rare opportunity for new operators to shape the next chapter of its story.
A striking facade and interior as well as enclosed grounds with over 30 private parking spaces, Hempstead Barn combines charm, presence and character. Once the heartbeat of the O&H Hampton development, the barn was recently acquired by Why Media, a marketing agency originally founded in Hampton in 2010.
Hempstead Barn has been exceptionally well preserved over the centuries, with original features that reflect its heritage, possibly dating back to the 1700s, offering space that can be reimagined for the modern era. From a boutique fitness studio to a destination restaurant or offices, the possibilities for its future use are endless.
Claire White a partner at Why Media commented, “We have a deep connection to Hempstead Barn, having worked from here in our early years to the present day. Our decision to acquire the building is about honouring its past while securing its future. We’ll be working with the team at Commercial List to identify the right next occupants who can bring fresh energy to the site, and to Peterborough as a whole.”
Commercial List holds exclusivity on all future tenancies and operator discussions. For details and to express interest, please visit their website.
