The site is 31 acres, proposed for redevelopment as industrial use (redundant with 'new_use' also industrial), with 'after_notes' describing a 'new light industrial park'.",
   "why": "Peer comparisons (all US sites) are irrelevant as this is a UK industrial site, not a mall. The 'verified: draft' status and conflicting narrative vs. record fields mean key details (e.g., actual use, closure reason) are unconfirmed. No planning approvals or deal details are provided.",
