Ian Vickers, Managing Director of Wates Construction Home Counties, said: "A topping out ceremony represents an exciting milestone, and signals that a scheme is well on its way to completion.

"The experience we've accrued on projects in Ascot, Camberley and Hertford has proved invaluable on this latest development. The smooth progress of Signature Bushey is also a testament to the excellent working relationship we've developed with Signature over recent years.

"We look forward to another year of close collaboration as we bring this key addition to Hertfordshire's senior living sector to completion."
