O’Brien offloads troubled former Doncaster soccer grounds
Contracts were finally exchanged between his company, Westferry Ltd; the ultimate owner of the land, Doncaster Council; and a British builder, Barratts.
The deal should see Mr O’Brien offload one of the most controversial assets in his portfolio, which was the subject of a lengthy inquiry by the Moriarty Tribunal. He has held a long-term lease on the site so his company will divide the proceeds with the council.
