The Inland team lead by our Land Director Paul Brett, working closely with planning consultants Rippon Development Services, have achieved a superb result for the Inland shareholders. We believe West Drayton will be a highly successful and commercially rewarding project for the Company and one that will also hold tremendous benefits for the local community.
