to the west of Junction 3 and 4 of the M18 motorway. The town is approximately 35 miles
south east of Leeds and 165 miles north of London.
The town also benefits from excellent rail communications with Doncaster train station offering
frequent train services to London with a fastest journey time of 1 hour 35 minutes, York in
approximately 20 minutes and Leeds in 35 minutes. Robin Hood airport is located approximately
7 miles from Doncaster town centre, offering international flights throughout Europe.
Doncaster
Doncaster has a population of 302,000 (Source: Office of National Statistics, 2011) and a
catchment population of approximately 1,750,000 within a 45 minute drive time.
Situation
Danum House is situated in Doncaster town centre at the junction of Duke Street, Printing
Office Street and St Sepulchre Gate.
One of the main entrances to the Frenchgate Shopping Centre, the town’s principal shopping
centre is located directly opposite the subject property. Other retailers in the immediate vicinity
include Sainsburys, New Look, Debenhams, Next, Clas Ohlson and McDonalds.
Description
The property is of steel frame construction with elevations of decorative brickwork and panels
at the front of the building and rendered brickwork at the rear of the property. The roofs are
all flat with an asphalt finish.
The property was constructed in the 1930’s in an art deco style with an internal refurbishment
programme completed in 2000. This Grade II listed property is arranged over basement, ground
and four upper floors. The basement, together with the majority of the ground floor and first
floor, comprise a former department store. The remainder of the ground floor comprises a retail
unit (let to Rymans), whilst the second, third and fourth floors are currently vacant.
Subject
Property
Pedestrian access is from St Sepulchre Gate and Printing Office Street with additional access

Planning
Prime frontage opposite
the Frenchgate Centre.
Planning consent has been secured for the basement, ground and first floor. The property
previously benefitted from Class A1 consent only, however the change of use consent now
permits for any use within Class A1 to A5 or D2 and also allows for internal re-configuration
of the premises. This opens up a wide range of development scenarios for the subject
property. Further information can be provided upon request.
