The Big Data Box Podcast with Taylor Cherrett from Turley

Turley director Taylor Cherrett joined the Battle & Bunce Talking Property podcast to discuss one sector experiencing surging demand for space.

Taylor, a director in Turley's South East team, has previously outlined the demand for data centres, which he says is an industry unmatched in recent years for the amount of development space it needs.

So we asked him to update us on how the demand, much of it driven by AI, is being addressed, how it has reached the higher echelons of Government and how the future looks.

And we learned that, amid the burgeoning need for ever bigger centres in key locations such as the Thames Valley, the centres themselves will eventually become smaller.

Cabling infrastructure, which runs along motorway routes and the Grand Union Canal, means access to London, just as in the physical world, is key. 

Energy demand, Green Belt and how data centres are transforming the landscape all came into play.

The Battle & Bunce Talking Property podcast Interviews the people making the headlines across property markets of Reading, Oxford, Cambridge and west London, loosely labelled the 'The Golden Triangle'. Our coverage is soon to be joined by our new journal, Western Whistle, reporting on the Bristol, Bath, Gloucester, and Cheltenham property markets.
