History[]

Galliard Homes was founded in 1992,[2] by Stephen Conway, who is still its chairman and stepped down as CEO in 2017.[3] In 1993, Galliard Homes purchased the completed Papermill Wharf. Galliard's Victorian conversion, Burrells Wharf followed in 1994, including a statue of engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel. Further developments in the Docklands include Great Jubilee Wharf and Millennium Quay.[4]

In 2011, together with Frogmore, Galliard acquired a site on Chiltern Street in Marylebone and began developing apartments, now known as The Chilterns.[5]

Galliard appeared on BBC One's The Apprentice in December 2015, with contestants trying to sell off-plan apartments at The Printworks in Clapham.[6]

In September 2016 Galliard's Lincoln Plaza development in London's Docklands won the Carbuncle Cup for the worst new building of the year in the UK.[7]

Led by chairman and chief executive officer Stephen Conway, the Group has three divisions, Galliard Homes, Galliard Commercial and Galliard Construction.[9]
