Newcastle-based Bellway recently said visitor levels were up by around 20% despite tough comparisons with the previous year, and it will reveal whether the strong trend has continued in recent weeks. Bellway reported a 69% surge in pre-tax profits to £40.6m in the first half of the year as completions rose 5% to 2,455 in the period. It had already completed 83% of its target for the full year at the six-month stage, so the City expects the group's full year profits to rise by a third to £89.8m
