For nearly 80 years members of the Wilson family have been building fine homes in Hampshire and West Sussex.
First came Ernest Wilson who in 1926 established E.Wilson & Sons Cosham Ltd. Ernest was joined by his son
Denis and Denis was in turn joined by his sons, including Simon, in his building business, Denis Wilson Builders Ltd.
Now Simon, managing director of Wilson Homes, has set up Wilson Designer Homes, where he has been joined by his son
Stuart. Stuart, the fourth generation of the Wilson family to be part of the tradition, studied at Portsmouth
University where he obtained a degree in Real Estate Management. Father and son say that Wilson Designer Homes will
concentrate on developing small sites, which will be designed to complement the environment in which they are set.
Each site will have just a handful of individual homes, and all will be built to the high specifications with which
the Wilson name is synonymous.
