RICS Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire local association was given a rare treat when Potton Ltd threw opens its doors for a behind-the-scenes tour.

The well-known and highly successful timber frame self-build housing factory, based in Great Gransden, Bedfordshire, gave members the chance to see the inner workings of its factory. Numbers were limited to just 14, so places filled up fast on the exclusive trip.

During the visit participants were given a presentation and introduction to Potton Ltd over a coffee and then donned safety clothing and hats for a guided tour of the factory.

The group was also shown the company’s show centre, where they viewed examples of completed homes in landscaped gardens.

Due to the success of the tour other local associations in the region are now looking into the possibility of organising similar visits in the future, so make sure you keep checking the RICS website for new event announcements.
