Green Hills Homestead Collection development receives prestigious national construction award

Green Hills Homestead Collection, built by Kingswood Homes, has won a 2025 LABC Warranty Bricks Development of the Year Award for its high standards of workmanship and excellent site management.

Kingswood Homes earned its place at The Bricks by receiving one of LABC Warranty's monthly Site Recognition Awards.

Winners of a Site Recognition Award are nominated by LABC Warranty's risk management surveyors during their regular inspections of building sites.

Site Recognition Awards score building sites against LABC Warranty’s standards for health and safety, workmanship, site tidiness and site management as observed by surveyors.

All monthly Site Recognition Award winners for the year are entered into The Bricks Development of the Year consideration, with LABC Warranty's technical specialists producing a shortlist and choosing the final winners.

This rigorous, evidence-led approach makes The Bricks Development of the Year Award one of the most prestigious and rare awards that builders and site managers in England and Wales can earn.

LABC Warranty is one of the largest providers of structural warranties in the UK. Working in partnership with Local Authority Building Control (LABC), its combined team of more than 3,700 surveyors work with house builders, contractors and housing associations.

The Homestead Collection is a new phase of homes at the awards winning Green Hills development in Feniscowles, taking inspiration from Georgian architecture.

These high specification homes feature Georgian style windows, high ceilings and optional coving detail as well as offering Kingswood’s unique Shape Your Home concept where customers can choose from flexible floor plans.

Stuart Bullough, construction director from Kingswood Homes, said: “We’re delighted to win The Bricks Development of the Year award from LABC Warranty. I’m especially pleased for Dave and Luke the Site Managers and all the site team working on Green Hills as this reward is a recognition of their hard work, professionalism and expertise.”

“The Bricks is one of the hardest prizes to win as a builder and site manager,” said Sarah Dee-Shapland, Head of Technical Services at LABC Warranty. “It requires site managers and their teams to work constantly to uphold quality, safety, and workmanship across all the plots under their care.

“Winning a Brick also requires the buy-in of builders to support their site managers, backing them to put together teams and contractors to deliver great homes on great sites.

“I’d like to offer my congratulations to The Bricks winners this year, they should all be proud of the incredible work they’ve done on their sites.”
