🏡Vistry - Rapid progress made at Leighton West to build 408 homes - 29 Dec 2529 Dec 2025 08:52
Vistry Group PLC announces rapid progress being made on new homes in Leighton West.
Additionally with the following announcements in the last two weeks for the build of another 1755 properties I think it bodes well for the company for the year ahead. All we need to see is the reinstatement of the dividend and a steady rise in share price😊:

Vistry, the UK’s leading provider of mixed-tenure homes, and its partner Plus Dane have marked the rapid progress being made on the delivery of 408 new homes at Leighton West in Crewe.
Through modern methods of construction and the use of timber frame panels, Vistry has been able to progress at considerable pace. Of the 116 homes in the initial phase, 26 frames in production, with work having only begun on 4th November.
Such strong early momentum has been matched by increased backing from Homes England, which has confirmed funding for land marked as Parcel E and has provided provisional support for funding for land marked as Parcel H, supporting the next stages of the development.
The scheme forms part of a wider masterplan for land close to Leighton Hospital, and is a key part of Cheshire East’s local plan. Of the 791 homes total homes at Leighton West, Vistry will deliver 408, including 208 for affordable housing provider Plus Dane. Of these, Plus Dane will make 60% (123 homes) available as social rent homes with the remaining 40% (85 homes) offered as affordable home ownership.
Matthew Parkes, Managing Director, Vistry Manchester and Cheshire East, said: “We are pleased to be on site at Leighton West and to see strong early progress. This is an important development for the area and will play a significant role in boosting local housing supply. Partnering with such a respected housing provider in Plus Dane means we can create a sustainable mix of high-quality homes that genuinely meets local need.”
Chris Morris, Executive Director Customer, Communities and Homes for Plus Dane, said: “We are delighted to see such rapid progress on the Leighton West site, as we are eager to be able to provide more much-needed affordable housing in Cheshire
