From the administrators' statement
The Company was incorporated on 23 November 1992 and was a residential developer in the South West region, acting as main design and build contractor for several investment developers under Devonshire Homes branded associated companies (Section 2.2).
The Company was headquartered in Tiverton, Devon, and traded from development sites across Devon, Somerset and Cornwall. Following our appointment, the Company ceased all trading activity at each of the development sites.
As at the date of administration, the Company employed 44 staff, of whom 37 were made redundant shortly after our appointment. Seven employees were retained to assist the Joint Administrators in completing their statutory duties and securing and protecting the assets of the Company. These staff members have since been made redundant.
