Rooted in History
Our aim is to delight buyers with quality new homes which are build to last,
and customer service which is second to none.
Our Heritage
Our Story
The Hills Group story began in 1990 when Edward Hill started his brickworks, in Morris Street, Swindon. From these humble beginnings, the company flourished, passing through generations of Hill family members who have blended hard work, innovation and an entrepreneurial spirit to shape a regional business success story.
Over the decades, the company diversified into sand and gravel quarrying, waste management and housebuilding – the latter a logical extension for a company with roots in the manufacture of bricks and tiles. The Hills Group remains a family-run business to this day, led by Chairman Mike Hill, Edward’s great-grandson, with Mark Tinson leading Hills Homes as Divisional Managing Director.
