Tobermore have supplied an extensive variety of world class paving products for the grounds at Westpoint Homes development, Thorngrove Park.

The project is set within the conservation area of Bearsden in Glasgow and consists of 25 properties which range from affordable homes for shared equity through to large period-themed detached homes and luxury villa apartments, offering a rare, authentic blend of traditional style with modern influences.

The entire hard landscape at Thorngrove Park was created with Tobermore products; from the aged, antique finishes of Tegula and Retro block paving in the soft, blended tones of Bracken and Riven Flags in subtle Charcoal, to the more modern, smooth finishes of Shannon block paving, also in Bracken.

With the increased risks of flooding in the UK in recent years, Westpoint Homes felt it was vital that a SUD’s solution be employed to help prevent issues like this arising. Tobermore’s Hydropave Tegula and Hydropave Shannon permeable paving was the key to this problem in providing an infiltration method for rainwater and pollution run-off at Thorngrove Park.

The beauty of Tobermore’s Hydropave permeable paving products is the fact that style is not compromised to achieve these practical benefits, as each Hydropave product is manufactured with all the aesthetics of the standard product equivalent.

As well as Tobermore, Westpoint Homes Ltd worked with Young and Gault Architects, who designed the stunning scheme, and Synergy Construction who laid the paving products, to achieve the end result at Thorngrove Park.

Evan McKinnon, Commercial Manager at Westpoint Homes has stated, “It’s been a pleasure working with Tobermore and with Alan McNeilage.

“Thorngrove Park has been a fantastic development to be involved in and is a project that Westpoint Homes are extremely proud of.”

"That surprises me.  Do you not continue through the season? Surely you'll only get a few week protection at best from each application?"
