Bellway finds structural defect in London high-rise

Housebuilder Bellway has made a £30.5m provision to remediate structural defects in a high-rise block it built in London.

Bellway said it had identified an “isolated design issue” relating to the reinforced concrete frame of an apartment scheme it built 12 years ago in the London Borough of Greenwich. The name of the high-rise was not provided.
