Village housing development signage revealed by creative youngster who came up with its name

The first signage for a new housing development in Glenboig has been revealed by the creative youngster who came up with its title.

As part of a local community engagement project in North Lanarkshire earlier this year, Taylor Wimpey’s Meadowside development was named following a challenge for school pupils at nearby Glenboig Primary to create a marketing title for the development that reflected the character of the village.

The winner of the competition, Grace McNally, now in P7, unveiled the first signage for Meadowside, where pre-construction is well underway.

Grace won a £50 book token, which she received earlier this year, and Taylor Wimpey West Scotland also donated £250 to school funds.

Mrs Macindoe, principal teacher at Glenboig Primary, told Lanarkshire Live : “We are very happy that Grace has made her mark locally by naming Taylor Wimpey’s development, and we are also delighted with the additional school donation of £250, which will be used to boost various resources in school.”

Audrey Ross, sales and marketing director, added: “It is incredibly important to us to get involved in the local communities in which we build, and we are delighted to confirm the name of our development in Glenboig.

"Meadowside will from part of the existing vibrant local community and be a great place to call home, and we’re looking forward to launching for sale in early next year.”

Pre-construction work for its development of 535 new homes at the former Garnqueen Farm is well underway, and this cements Taylor Wimpey’s commitment to North Lanarkshire for some time to come.

Meadowside will deliver an impressive choice of two, three, and four-bedroom homes to provide a range of options for first time buyers and growing families.
