Groundbreaking at Lower Acre

Major progress on work at One Horton Heath with the appointment of Lower Acre’s lead contractor and the start of work on first homes.

Another important milestone has been achieved in the life of One Horton Heath: ground was broken at Lower Acre, ready for construction of the first new homes at the site to begin.  

Lower Acre, the site of the development's first new homes, will be accessed via the Southern Gateway, completed in 2022. The area will be comprised of seven individually designed character areas delivering a variety of 1,2,3, and 4-bed homes. The new residential homes will showcase the development's high-quality design principles across a mix of houses and flats for private and affordable tenants and buyers. 

Work on these homes starts from the ground up, with contractors Hope & Clay undertaking ground preparation works and SPEEDECK Foundations starting to pour foundations for the first of the 381 homes being delivered. Surrey-based Wates Group Limited was appointed to build these homes at Lower Acre.  

The start of work on the first homes at One Horton Heath follows delivery on our 'Infrastructure First' commitment, which has seen the implementation of two newly constructed drainage tanks, three electric substations, and the site Link Road, due to be completed this year.
