A prestigious housing development set in beautiful surroundings
The historic market town of Chippenham is one of the West Country’s most vibrant towns. Nestled on the banks of the River Avon, the town offers an ideal centre for relaxation and exploration of rural Wiltshire, Bath and the Cotswolds. The Bluebells by Wain Homes is a superb development of luxurious three, four and five bedroom family homes. Located in the rural south-east corner of this scenic town, The Bluebells features 70 home properties in both mixed brick and walling stone.
A readily available high quality solution
Nick Carey, Commercial Director for Wain Homes in the Severn Valley, said: “We specified Walling Stone as fitted really well with the surrounding buildings and developments, as existing buildings close to this site have been built using natural stone. We also wanted a solution as we needed something other than brick and render. Recon walling offers many benefits over natural stone, not least the cost, but also with the speed of build, which can dramatically reduce installation times. Ibstock's Walling Stone is also readily available, a significant factor to ensure we had the right products, when we needed them, with little to no disruption ensuring we could meet our strict project timescales.”
“Shearstone’s Cotswold Village was selected because it fitted the local vernacular perfectly. The range is a high quality solution and was specified due to the competitiveness of the products and to expand out supply chain.” Nick Carey Commercial Director for Wain Homes
