The development enables the retention of the existing Victorian buildings and their contribution to the Conservation Area. The addition of a rear extension, specifically designed to provide accommodation on five levels, enables a viable and radical intervention.

 

The project is acting as a catalyst for the regeneration of the area, by setting an example as to how to make good use of this building type in a way that protects the conservation benefits of the buildings whilst, at the same time, creating a viable development.
