Zero carbon homes in Worton

Newland Homes intends to build its flagship zero carbon homes at Worton.  These homes do not rely on fossil fuels for heat or power.  Instead, they use renewable technology in the form of solar panels and air source heat pumps, meaning that they are highly energy efficient and create as much prime energy as they need to run.

Simon Richardson, Associate Land Director at Newland Homes, commented. “This is a spectacular site with great potential, and we will now start work on creating a development befitting of this location.”

Newland Homes was established in Gloucestershire in 1991 and has a long-standing history with the Wiltshire area.  It currently has three development sites underway in the Wiltshire villages of Semington and Chapmanslade, and the market town of Westbury.
