Project Description

The works comprised of the careful demolition of the existing aluminium framed & glass greenhouse and concrete base whilst carefully protecting the existing potting shed & stores which were to remain in place.

Project Overview

A new timber framed single storey building was then constructed to form a new office, staff room, mower store, tool store, toilet and a separate greenhouse with a fuel/chemical store. The architects were keen to reduce the visual impact on the surrounding environment and therefore the predominant material used was timber, this included using cedar shingle roof tiles.
