THE MENAI CENTRE   | BANGOR | NORTH WALES | LL57 1DX

       DESCRIPTION
       The property provides highly prominent, modern retail block, totalling approximately
       139,218 sq ft (12,933.67 sq m) and offering clear, open plan, fully flexible retail space
       in the heart of Bangor City Centre. The majority of the Menai Centre was developed
       in 2008.

       „„ The accommodation comprises 22 standard retail units and 1 large store over 3 levels,
          with the benefit of an associated multi-storey car park at the rear (Dean Street Car
          Park), providing 417 vehicle spaces. The loading facilities are provided by the rear yard
          area, accessed from the roundabout junction of Deiniol Road and Garth Road.

       „„ At High Street level (piazza level), The Menai Centre provides an attractive piazza area
          with 4 smaller retail units let to Caffè Nero, Regis, 3UK and The Body Shop.

       „„ The main entrance for Debenhams department store is also provided at the piazza level,
          through an imposing, double height and fully glazed entrance of approximately
          45 ft (13.7 m) frontage.

       „„ There are two other prime retail units fronting the High Street, let to H&M and JD Sports,
          which is separated from the piazza by 273-279 High Street, which are not included
          within the ownership.

       „„ Due to level changes, units 4-17 are positioned below Debenhams, fronting Garth Road
          and Cathedral Walk, the latter being directly opposite the Marks & Spencer store.

       „„ Units 4, 5, 6 and 7 are let to Select, BHF, Shop Menai, Superdrug and River Island
          respectively.

       „„ Burger King, Poundland, [my] Dentist and Yugen Coffee occupy units 11, 12, 13, 14 & 16.

       „„ The remaining units along Garth Road are vacant, also with good tenant interest.

    CAR PARK
The property also includes the 4 level 417 space multi-
storey car park of concrete and steel construction,
located immediately to the north of the Centre.

Vehicular access is from the north via Dean Street with
pedestrians then exiting south, directly towards the
Menai Centre via Cathedral Walk. The car park is held
long leasehold from Bangor City Council by way of a
150 year term, with effect from 29th January 2007, at
a headrent of £82,500 per annum, reviewed five yearly
upward only based upon greater of annual indexation
of 2.5% per annum and RPI increase. The 2017 review
remains outstanding.

Following professional advice the vendor installed six
new parking machines and commenced charging which
began May 2017. The target income of £140,000 per
annum was based upon achieving variable tariff rates set
out below assuming the use of 225 of the 417 spaces.

£3 / up to 12 hours

At this point, the revenue generated from the new
regime is on track to achieve the targeted income of
£140,000 per annum. Whilst the car park still produces
a landlord shortfall (based upon annual costs of              The Menai Centre   Freehold (edged red)
£188,777 per annum) it is the view of the vendors car
park specialists that over time the shortfall will continue
