Mr Jason Glover, Operations Manager of Davidsons Homes, added, "Davidsons were very proud to welcome the local Member of Parliament and the Leader of the Council to officially open our new show home.

Leader of Blaby District Council, Cllr Terry Richardson, said "The progress of this development is testament to the close collaboration between Blaby District Council and the developers of New Lubbesthorpe. This development is indicative of what makes Blaby District an excellent place to live and work, and I look forward to visiting the site again in the near future".
