Topping out ceremony held by Clegg Construction at The Fabric Works in Leeds
Clegg Construction has held a topping out ceremony at The Fabric Works in Leeds to mark a key milestone in the development of the £37m student accommodation scheme.
The event celebrates a significant step in the delivery of the 402-studio block, which is due to complete in summer 2025 ahead of the 2025/2026 academic intake.
The scheme is being delivered in partnership with PPG Leeds Ltd, a joint venture between Primus Property Group and HIG Capital. It is situated next to Spinners Yard – a 185-apartment build-to-rent development also being built by Clegg Construction.

Local community engagement and philanthropic initiatives
As part of the delivery of The Fabric Works, Clegg Construction has undertaken a range of commitments to the local community including hosting multiple visits from Leeds College of Building students, significant donations to Blessed of the Father Food Bank, and regular contact with members of the neighbourhood via newsletters, a noticeboard, letter drops and in-person visits from the site team.
