"The Wilton Park site is arguably the one of the best development opportunities in the South East of England.
"As a business, Inland Homes has a great track record in delivering large scale projects such as this and looks forward to managing the development over the coming years in the same way as the development at Drayton Garden Village in West Drayton."
