Business parks crowd its 5km radius: King Street Trading Estate, Ergo Park, Road 2 Business Park, Oasis Business Park, Pineapple Park and part of Winsford Industrial Estate. Wharton Retail Park and Winsford station are nearby, as is Weaver Lodge Independent Hospital. With 26 licensed premises and 21 construction plots in range, firms here juggle evening nuisance in the centre with overnight risk to plant, stock and vehicles on the estates, so cover often needs to change with the hour.

Middlewich Security FAQs ## Frequently asked questions ### Does drug activity affect businesses in Middlewich? Police have flagged drugs as the local priority, and related problems such as damage (87 offences) and public order (149) appear in the Police.uk figures. Lighting, monitored cameras and patrols make premises far less attractive. ### Can you patrol King Street Trading Estate? Yes. Estates such as King Street, Ergo Park and Oasis Business Park make up much of our night work. Officers vary their timing, check locks and fences, and GPS logs each visit for your report. ### Will you protect a Middlewich building site? Twenty-one construction plots appear on the local map. We cover them with static officers, solar towers, dog teams or regular rounds, adjusting as each project moves from groundwork to fit-out. ### Do you provide stewards for Barton Stadium or Canalside events? Our licensed stewards and door teams work events at venues like Barton Stadium and the Canalside Conference Centre. Where 200 people or more are expected, we also help plan for Martyn's Law. ### Do Middlewich shops still face much theft? Much less than before. Police.uk shows shop theft down 78% in the newest quarter against a year earlier, so local retailers may need lighter cover than town centres where theft is still rising.
