Working Documentation

This approx 400sqm refurbishment and extension of the existing branch, shows a total street infill across the site. In the 1960’s, the bank was built set-back from the street building line. The 2003 extension remakes the street edge, with a glass roofed link between the new street building and the older set-back facade.

In accordance with the Local Authority’s requirements, the elevational treatment to the street is in keeping with the vernacular of the existing streetscape, with pitched roof, vertically proportioned windows, stone and render surfaces.
