Today marks the arrival of our 2026 Royal Norfolk Show marquee and the first step in bringing this year’s stand to life.

By the end of today, our van will have made way for the new marquee, marking the start of another exciting build-up to one of Norfolk’s biggest events.

We’ll be sharing updates as Stand 265 takes shape, giving you a behind-the-scenes look at the people, planning and partnerships that make it all possible.

We’re looking forward to welcoming clients, partners, suppliers and visitors onto the stand alongside Canham Consulting, LSI Architects and Broadland Radio, showcasing the projects, people and collaborations that continue to shape construction across Norfolk.

We can’t wait to see you there.

📍 Last Week’s Site Visit – Ilketshall St Lawrence, Suffolk

Last week we were back on site at Ilketshall St Lawrence, where excellent progress continues to be made across this development.

Working on behalf of East Suffolk Council, with REAL Consulting acting as Employer’s Agent, A Squared Architects leading the design and Rossi Long Consulting providing Civil & Structural Engineering services, this is another fantastic project for Smith of Honingham.

With construction moving forward at pace, it’s great to see the project continuing to take shape and the vision becoming a reality. Every visit highlights the quality, teamwork and collaboration between the client, consultants and site teams.

From the groundwork through to the structures now emerging across the site, progress is clear to see and reflects the expertise and commitment of everyone involved.

Inspiring the Next Generation at Ilketshall St Lawrence.

This morning, we were delighted to welcome pupils from Ilketshall St Lawrence Primary School to site for a behind-the-scenes look at the construction industry.

Joined by Jonathan, Gary and our H&S Champion, Bert, the children learned about the different roles involved in delivering a construction project, how a live site operates, and why health and safety is at the heart of everything we do.

A huge thank you to Tristan Smith, for sharing his knowledge and giving the pupils an insight into the construction process, while Bert helped demonstrate the importance of staying safe on site.

We’re now looking forward to seeing the pupils’ Bert health and safety poster designs over the coming weeks before selecting a winning entry. We can’t wait to see their creativity and ideas come to life!

It’s always fantastic to engage with local schools and inspire the next generation to learn more about construction and the exciting opportunities our industry can offer.

As the Suffolk Show starts today, we’re excited to share a first look ahead to this year’s Royal Norfolk Show stand.

Before we unveil what’s coming for 2026, here’s a recap of what we got up to at last year’s show.

Two fantastic days of conversations, connections and collaboration. From welcoming clients, partners and suppliers onto the stand, to showcasing the strength of the construction industry across Norfolk, it was a brilliant event from start to finish.

Working alongside Canham Consulting and LSI Architects, we demonstrated what can be achieved when our industry comes together.

More collaboration.
Even more happening this year.

Take a look back at some of last year’s highlights below — and we’re looking forward to welcoming you onto the stand at this year’s Royal Norfolk Show.

One year on from the official opening of the Norfolk Food Hall at the Royal Norfolk Showground, it’s fantastic to see how the project has become such a success for Norfolk.

At Smith of Honingham, we are incredibly proud to have been part of a project that celebrates local farming, local produce, and the very best of Norfolk.

Working alongside an outstanding team including REAL Consulting LLP, Brown&Co LLP, Rossi Long Consulting, QODA Consulting, Philip Waller, Appetite Me, and the Royal Norfolk Agricultural Association, this fantastic development was brought to life through true collaboration and shared vision.

From the very beginning, the aim was to create something special for Norfolk — a destination that showcases how food is grown, produced, and enjoyed, while creating a “mini Royal Norfolk Show” experience throughout the year.

As local contractors, it has been a privilege for Smith of Honingham to help deliver a project that continues to support the region’s farming community while highlighting the strength of local businesses working together.

A huge congratulations to everyone involved in this fantastic project, and it’s great to see just how successful the Norfolk Food Hall has become one year on.

From the very first stages on site to the finished development we see today — the progress at Broadland Business Park has been fantastic to watch.

What was once a live construction site is now a completed development delivered through hard work, precision, and collaboration from everyone involved.

This project has progressed rapidly from the early groundwork phases right through to the finished result we’re proud to showcase today.

Every stage of the journey has been documented from start to finish, capturing the progress and evolution of the build along the way.

Now it’s time to take a look inside…

The interiors now complete, the development really comes to life — showcasing the quality, attention to detail, and finish that defines Smith of Honingham.

A huge thank you to our team, partners, and everyone involved in bringing this project to reality. It’s been fantastic to see the site evolve every step of the way into the finished build we see today.

We don’t just build projects — we deliver them from start to finish.
