Project Overview:

Kingsheath Construction was appointed by Vistry Group to deliver a comprehensive groundworks and infrastructure package for the Martello Lakes development in Hythe. This substantial residential project, valued at £12.5 million, involves the creation of 200 new units and requires a high level of logistical management and technical expertise.

Commencing in January 2025, our team is responsible for the full lifecycle of the groundworks—from initial site preparation and enabling works through to the final soft landscaping. The project highlights our ability to deliver large-scale infrastructure, including complex drainage solutions and foundation systems, while maintaining the strict timelines required for a major multi-unit development.

  • Enabling & Infrastructure: Initial vegetation and topsoil strip, followed by the installation of primary roads and sewers.
