Unit 4 Hayes, UB3 1FN

On the site of the 18-acre EMI record factory, where ground-breaking records by Pink Floyd and The Beatles were created, a unique new neighbourhood is evolving. The Old Vinyl Factory is now the site of a wide range of 642 new homes, innovation and educational hubs, restaurants, shops, gym and climbing wall. The Venue by Weston Homes is the last phase of residential development on the site, where over half of its 181 properties are now occupied with the rest to be finished by Spring 2023. The Groove, a tree-lined pedestrian street that runs past the commercial units at The Venue, goes through the entirety of The Old Vinyl Factory and links to Hayes & Harlington train station and the town centre.
