Roof Tile Manufacturer to Supply New Garden City Development

ROOF TILE manufacturer Russell Roof Tiles has supported Berkshire-based housing developer Bloor Homes on the first phase of a multimillion-pound garden city scheme.

The development, called Larkfields, is one of 13 phases at the new £35m residential-led, mixed-use Berewood project in Waterlooville, Hampshire for which Bloor is building over 300 units.

Over the next 10-15 years the new garden city community is being built across 168 acres, offering over 2,000 homes and a range of amenities.

Estimated to be complete in 2026, the 11-acre Larkfields site will feature two, three and four-bed homes for which Russell Roof Tiles has supplied its Lothian Tiles in Cottage Red for the project.

Michael Palmer, Area Sales Manager at Russell Roof Tiles said: “This is a great development for Russell Roof Tiles to be involved with and we are very proud to be continuing to support Bloor Homes with this first phase of such a significant project.

“We worked closely with the developer to assess their needs and agreed that our Lothian Tiles would be the perfect solution to provide not only the desired aesthetic but a cost-effective option.”

New Garden City Development

A garden city development integrates urban living with green spaces, promoting a balance between residential areas, industry, and agriculture.

The aim is to create a self-sufficient, sustainable community, combining the benefits of metropolitan and rural living while avoiding the problems of overcrowded cities or isolated countryside.

To achieve this Berewood will feature two new schools, offices, multiple retail outlets, and two new pubs alongside its 2,550 homes and will be surrounded by 250 acres of green space.
