The only commercial heliport in London has been put onto the market by its owner Von Essen Aviation Ltd.
London Heliport is said to be of interest to buyers including Joe Bamford, owner of construction equipment manufacturer JCB, and the former owner of Harrods department store, Mohammed Al Fayed.
Two other high-profile, unnamed bidders, are also said to be showing strong interest in the heliport.
Von Essen Aviation Ltd – which is owned by the founder of the Von Essen hotel chain, Andrew Davis, is a separate entity to the hotel chain, which fell into administration in April this year.
