A new state-of-the-art business centre is coming to one part of Merseyside.

Start-Yard is a work village based in a former industrial garage located close to the historic Cammell Laird shipyard in Birkenhead and is described by its owner as an “exciting biosphere” for potential business.

Aimed at entrepreneurs in the early stages of their business development, it offers affordable self-contained work units and several open-plan workspace desks. The hub has now announced the upcoming launch of the second stage of its innovative warehouse container village.
