29 Chalvey Road West, Slough, SL1 2NF
The most recent insolvency notice for Wexham Homes Limited is a Petitions to wind up (Companies), published 24 July 2026 in The London Gazette. The petition was presented by Cornwall Council. The case is before the Business and Property Courts in England And Wales (case CR-2026-004517). The petition was listed to be heard on 05/08/2026 at 10:30 (or as soon thereafter as the Petition can be heard) — a date that has now passed, and the Gazette notice is not updated afterwards. Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 30 September 2025, showed total assets of £2.6m and net assets of £337k. A winding-up petition asks the court to close a company and place it into compulsory liquidation, most often because a debt has gone unpaid. If the court makes a winding-up order, control passes to the Official Receiver or an appointed liquidator, the company's bank accounts are frozen and its assets are sold to repay creditors.
The petitioning creditor is a public body, so the debt is owed to government rather than to a trade supplier or a lender.
