Lawrence & Long Architects

The project consists of two buildings, a new five-storey over basement mixed-used building at Nos.49&50 containing two commercial units and 7no. apartments; and a renovated Georgian building (protected structure) at No.51 accommodating 4no. apartments all at a city centre site that had long been derelict.

The new-build is formed around a three-storey atrium behind the façade of No.50 where the tour will start with a brief recent history of the site and an outline of the design intent. The tour will then move into the entrance hall and circulation core and onto a selection of the apartments* over ground including the fourth floor of the duplex penthouse apartment with sweeping view over the city skyline. The new-build tour will finish in the basement apartment* which includes the retained original coal store brick vaults uncovered in the construction process.

The two buildings share a communal courtyard to the rear which will be walked through before proceeding into the protected structure where the tour will finish.

Pre-book only
