Return to Central Belt for buoyant Tulloch
The Inverness-based firm, one of the north of Scotland’s largest housebuilders, said it was to spend £40 million on developing two sites – East Kilbride this spring, and Glenrothes in the second half of the year. The move is on the back of recent growth, with two developments in Aberdeen also in the pipeline.
