We were appointed by John Thompson and Partners Architects to work alongside their conservation architect, Nicola de Quincey, to carry out a conservation appraisal of a former hospital, prior to conversion to housing, to assess its suitability for conversion.
We carried out a detailed site inspection and recorded the elements room by room. We prepared a 3-d CAD model to study options for layout and to study the potential impact of introducing lifts, balconies and service cores.
We carried out a survey of the boundary walls and studied the implications of potentially creating further openings, prior to an application for listed building consent.
