SUCCESSFUL PROJECT COMPLETION IN EASTBOURNE

AD Bly is pleased to announce the successful completion of our Eastbourne project for McCarthy & Stone, bringing our works to a close in September 2026 after first starting on site in February 2025.

Delivered across two visits, our first visit spanning twelve-weeks followed by another visit for nine-weeks.

 

Our scope included:

• Multi-storey retirement home constructed just metres from the English Channel, requiring careful planning around coastal ground conditions
• Project delivered to a tight client programme and with outstanding safety performance
• High groundwater table posed challenges within the gravel strata — value engineering and a full drainage strategy review enabled us to raise drainage levels and mitigate groundwater impact
• Permeable block paved SUDS car park designed and installed, providing sustainable drainage for 41 parking spaces
• New UKPN substation constructed with a suspended concrete roof slab, built to meet utility provider specifications
• Extensive soft landscaping scheme delivered across all external areas, creating varied, attractive spaces for residents to enjoy year round

A big thank you to McCarthy & Stone and everyone involved in delivering this project.
