LATEST: An urgent resident communication has been issued. You can access it here: Residents.
Our official name is Dovecote (Drayton) Management Company Limited and we are incorporated at Companies House under company number 11103835. To keep things nice and easy, we refer to ourselves as The Dovecote ManCo.
The Dovecote ManCo is responsible for maintaining the Communal Spaces on The Dovecote, Drayton, South Oxfordshire.
The Dovecote ManCo and The Dovecote Residents’ Association (TDRA)
The residents set up TDRA in 2020 to protect their interests whilst Bloor Homes completed the Communal Spaces, secured sign off from Vale of White Horse District Council (VWHDC) and transferred over the land to The Dovecote ManCo.
During that time, residents had no say in how the Communal Spaces were managed, nor the schedule of maintenance undertaken. That was the responsibility of Bloor Homes.
Whilst all of this work was going on, The Dovecote ManCo has been patiently waiting to take on enduring responsibility for maintenance of the Communal Spaces.
The Managing Agent that Bloor Homes appointed to look after the interests of The Dovecote ManCo (FirstPort), has provided a bare-bones service to residents, (e.g. supporting property sales and purchases) and dealt with the required Companies House filings.
We are now moving into a different phase of life at The Dovecote and we hope to be taking on the role of TDRA in protecting the interests of residents.
