Castle Court Shopping Mall Sold

The Castle Court shopping mall in Belfast has been sold to Hermes.

The Hermes property fund already had half a share in the mall, however it has now taken full control following a deal with Australian company Westfield.

Before the Northern Ireland property slump the centre was valued at approximately £350 million.

It is now believed to be worth less than half of that.
