One of the most famous names in North East Construction history, has been revived after Edward Yuill, the grandson of Cecil M Yuill, purchased the company name from receivers and re- launched it as a Land Management company to bring land forward for development.
To celebrate the re-launch, the company has generously sponsored the Hambleton and Richmondshire Junior Football League, an FA recognised Charter Standard League which organises football for Under 10’s to Under 16’s from Swaledale in the north to Thirsk in the south of North Yorkshire.
Edward Yuill, Managing Director of Hartlepool-based Cecil M Yuill Ltd, commented, “Yuill Homes was founded by my Grandfather, Cecil M Yuill in 1927 and has been responsible for a sizeable proportion of the region’s housing stock in the intervening years, building up to 1,000 homes every year at its height and employing some 500 skilled personnel.”
“In 2006, however, we sold the entire company to Irish house builder, Taggart Holdings, and were obviously disappointed when they ceased trading in 2014, although this no longer had anything to do with our family business of estate management and land development. However, we jumped at the opportunity to purchase the name back from the receivers and are currently re-launching it as a land management company.”
“North Yorkshire is a very important area for us and we’re delighted to be able to help the local communities here by sponsoring the junior football leagues.”
David Williams, Chairman of the Hambleton and Richmondshire Junior Football League, added, “We started life as the Wensleydale Friendly League comprising villages in Wensleydale and Swaledale. About 15 years ago it officially affiliated with North Riding County FA and expanded its geographical coverage while trying to preserve its “friendly” origins and we are now recognised as a Charter Standard league.”
“We’re extremely grateful to Edward and the Yuill family for their support which will help us to expand the League with better facilities, including indoor ‘Futsal’ competitions.”
