Datum FRN2 Data Centre Building
Under construction last observed as of · Authoritative status update
Operator locates its Farnborough facilities in Cody Technology Park and explicitly describes FRN2 as linked adjacent to FRN1. Its footer publishes the exact Google Maps campus link selected for the locator. evidence
Datum Datacentres · publication date not stated
The September 25 report says the MP visited the ongoing FRN2 construction last week and identifies FRN2 as the second facility on its Farnborough campus. The visit lacks an exact day; use September 4 for the precise physical observation rather than relabelling publication as visit date. evidence
Datum Datacentres · published 2026-09-25
FRN2 is described as the next Farnborough development linked adjacent to FRN1, with 1,200 footprints across two floors and planned 22,000 square feet of technical space. The four-hall bullet conflicts with the overview’s two halls; retain the conflict and no inferred total MW. evidence

A locator places the site on the map. It is not a building footprint, a construction extent or a surveyed boundary unless the use scope is an official boundary, and even then it is a parcel or permit boundary.
Evidence
Sources are linked, not redistributed; each keeps its own terms. An archived copy is a lookup for the Wayback Machine capture nearest the retrieval date and may be unavailable or differ from what was reviewed. Each hash states what it covers; imported factual records are not publisher-page captures.
