In the past year Midgard delivered, on or ahead of time, a number of challenging projects as well as diversifying into several new sectors. The company handed over 462 apartments, including shared-ownership flats at Newbury racecourse (pictured), and a new-build behind a grade I-listed facade on Regent’s Crescent in central London using the same method of lime mortar and render as the original John Nash design.
