Groundbreaking: Gayhurst School

Perfectly put by our #HemelHempstead Regional Director Mark Doyle: “Groundbreaking is one of those beautiful traditions in a construction process, where a client, in this case the leadership at Gayhurst School, realise that their ambition is suddenly becoming reality.”

The Neilcott team will be delivering a new sports hall, auditorium and staffing facility, skillfully designed by Morse Webb Architects.

I have completed at least 5 Education projects [with Neilcott]…., ranging from £300,000 to £19,000,000+. Each project had a very good design and site team, with good relationships throughout and works completed pretty much on time and budget.
