Last week, despite some particularly enthusiastic June weather, construction professionals from across Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire gathered at Tewinbury Farm Hotel for the Herts & Beds Constructing Excellence Awards 2026.
The annual awards celebrate the people, projects and organisations that are driving innovation, quality, sustainability and collaboration across the built environment. Hertfordshire Building Control and the wider Broste Rivers organisation were proud to support this year’s event as sponsor of the Residential Project of the Year category.
