Catesby retained 3.6 acres, gaining detailed planning permission for a discount food store which was sold to Lidl in 2014.

Planning was then granted for the construction of the 43,256 sq.ft Binhamy Retail Park in 2015, which adjoins Lidl and Morrisons food stores and construction was completed in 2017. 

The retail park which included occupiers B&M Stores & Subway, was subsequently sold in 2019, and an outline application with all matters reserved excluding access was submitted for the remaining 1.4 acre residential parcel.

This was then sold to Cornwall Council in 2021 for the development of a mix of 20 market and affordable homes.
