BSP was part of the team that delivered 46 new homes near Grantham for Longhurst Group.
Built by Lindum, The Spires development at Easthorpe Road in Great Gonerby features a mix of housing tenures. This includes shared ownership, affordable rent and rent to buy.
BSP was the civil and structural engineer on the scheme, and also provided transport planning services.
Associate civil engineer Stephen Hardman said: “BSP was very pleased to be a part of the team delivering these new homes near Grantham. The site had challenging topography, which necessitated some carefully considered designs. We’re delighted that families are now enjoying these new homes.”
The Spires is made up of a mix of two, three and four-bedroom homes. It has more than 90 car parking spaces.
Longhurst Group
Marcus Keys, Longhurst Group Executive Director of Growth and Development said: “We’re absolutely delighted to have completed The Spires development in Great Gonerby and are proud of the final results.
“This development, which secured planning permission on its second attempt, helps to meet the need for affordable housing in the area and has allowed a number of local residents and families make their first step onto the property ladder.
“Our Improving Lives vision commits us to providing the homes people want, where they’re needed most and this development certainly helps us achieve that goal.
“I’d like to thank our construction partners Lindum Group for their hard work in building this development, and hope that everyone who moves into a property at The Spires enjoys their new homes.”
Tom Hawley, Homes England’s Head of Affordable Housing Growth for the Midlands said he was pleased to see the scheme – partly funded through Homes England’s Affordable Homes Programme – come to fruition.
He added: “It’s always great to see the new homes built on a site that were enabled through investment from the Affordable Homes Programme and delivering high quality homes like The Spires in great locations like Grantham.
“This development supports people to secure a new home through more choices to rent or buy that suits their circumstances.”
