A major milestone was hit as the first affordable homes were completed at Woodland Glade, the 100-acre development to the southeast of Telford.

We've celebrated the first of the 102 affordable homes being built on the site being handed over to us from our development partners, Vistry Group, the UK’s leading provider of mixed-tenure homes. 

Once completed, we'll be taking 102 of the 299  high-quality two-, three, and four-bedroom homes being built on the site, designed to meet the needs of the growing local community. Our homes will include 59 homes available for affordable rent and 16 homes offered through shared ownership. 

The partnership with Bromford ensures that a significant portion of the development supports long-term affordability and inclusivity for residents in Telford.  

Michael Moore, Managing Director at Vistry North West Midlands, said: “We are proud to reach this important milestone and to be delivering much-needed affordable homes in partnership with Bromford. This development reflects our dedication to creating vibrant, inclusive communities across the UK.” 

Tracey Bird, Project Manager at Bromford, added: ““It’s fantastic to see the first of our affordable homes at Woodland Glade handed over and ready for customers to move in. Working closely with Vistry, we’re providing high-quality homes to local families that will make a real difference to their lives. It’s a great example of what strong partnership working can achieve.” 

Construction works are well underway, with final completion expected by March 2028.
