We’re celebrating 40 Years!

The Bowmer + Kirkland Group opened Hallington Drive in Heanor. Although the Peveril Homes brand hadn’t yet been established, this milestone marked the first step in our journey, laying the groundwork for decades of quality development to come.

We launched the Alton Manor development in Belper, a project that would span five phases over a period of 10 years. To engage with the community, we held a competition to name the streets, which was promoted through the local newspaper. The development offered homes priced between £39,500 and £110,000.

Between 2000 and 2007, we successfully launched a variety of new developments across the region. Notable projects during this period included Grants Yard in Burton on Trent, The Grange in Coalville, Swallows Reach in Swadlincote, and Eaton Park in Rugeley. Each of these developments helped to solidify Peveril Homes' reputation as a trusted name in quality housing, delivering modern, desirable homes to communities across the Midlands.

In 2011, we were honoured to receive the Gold Medal for Occupational Health and Safety from RoSPA, recognising our commitment to maintaining the highest safety standards. The award was proudly accepted by our long-serving Contracts Manager, Terry Wragg, whose dedication played a key role in achieving this milestone. Sadly, Terry has since passed away, but his contributions to our success and commitment to safety will always be remembered.

In 2015, we celebrated three decades of Peveril Homes, marking a significant achievement in our journey. This milestone highlighted the evolution of the company, driven by our commitment to delivering high-quality homes and contributing to the development of vibrant communities.

Colin, Jon, Dan, and Adam were all honoured with numerous LABC Warranty Awards, recognising their exceptional site management across various developments. These awards highlight their dedication to maintaining the highest standards of quality and professionalism throughout each project.

In 2018, Ivan Cooke was awarded the Site Manager Award for his outstanding work on The Paddocks development in Packington. This recognition reflected Ivan’s commitment to maintaining exceptional standards on site and ensuring the successful delivery of high-quality homes.

Our Construction Director, Colin Wright, was honoured with the prestigious LABC Chairman’s Award in recognition of his remarkable 45 years of service to the industry. Having retired after more than three decades of upholding our high build quality standards, Colin’s legacy continues to inspire us today.

Smalley Manor in Smalley, Derbyshire, was recognised with the LABC Best High Volume Housing Development of the Year award. This prestigious accolade celebrated the team’s exceptional work in delivering a large-scale development with outstanding build quality, design, and community integration.

Managing Director James Smith celebrates 25 years of service. Joining Peveril Homes in 1997 as an Assistant Land Buyer after graduating from Nottingham Trent University, James’ career has gone from strength to strength, as he secured several important roles within the company before being made Managing Director in January 2021.

Following our recent recognition with a 'Highly Commended' award in the LABC Development of the Year (51-100 units) category for our Abbey Central development, we were honoured to be invited to the LABC Bricks Award Winners’ Lunch.
