Bramall Construction in Yorkshire is celebrating after scooping two awards at the South Yorkshire and Humber Building Excellence Awards.

Bramall were crowned winner of the 'Best Social or Affordable Housing Development' award and was highly commended in the 'Best Sustainable Project' category, both for a development of new homes at Newhill Road, Barnsley.

The Newhill Road site was built on behalf of Yorkshire Housing, in partnership with Bramhall Blenkharn Architects, BGP Engineers and Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council.

The development consists of 58 properties for rent, shared ownership and sale. Each of the homes is equipped with state-of-the-art eco-friendly measures, such as solar panels, low energy lighting and increased insulation, designed to save money for residents.

David Morley, Construction Manager at Bramall, said: "The hard work of the team at Bramall and our partners has really paid off and we are proud that this has been recognised."
