We were asked to get involved with the drawings for planning on this pair of outbuildings as they are on the curtilage of a Grade 2 listed building. These shabby looking and unremarkable tin sheds where the latrines for US Armed Forces (three stalls per shed) as they planned D-day landings, and who knows who sat on the loo... but sad to say they are not safe or fit for purpose.
We filled the holes in the stone back wall that let you see into next door's garden and re-worked the structure and drainage to keep the floor dry and hold up the new roof.
The look and feel of the outside of the new sheds is in the same style as before, just fit to let the owners use them as a space to treasure in staid of hide. It's good to know that these unassuming little outbuildings (now given a new lease of life) will see them well loved long into the future.
We have been working on the next section of works to this Grade 1 Listed building on and off over the last year. We have been improving the flow to the living space, use and storage through the first floor of the building, creating: New layouts for the bedrooms and new bathroom, adding 2 new dormer windows to let in more natural light, replacing a paddle staircase with a custom building a staircase with storage below, continuing with the re-plumbing and wiring, re-enforcing floors and enhancing the existing features.
Through out these works and where ever possible we have been reducing and improving the environmental impact with insulation, removing the old gas boiler, double glassing and this is helping to make for a better environment and lower the running costs of the house.
