Refurbishment of a neglected Grade I listed Manor House and grounds with conversion into 9 luxury residential units, together with the refurbishment of 2 Lodges and a 3-storey masonry Dovecot. The project included enabling development consisting of 8 new residential units adjacent to the Manor House.

The approved planning scheme presented to Structa made inadequate provision for parking. As this would have a significant impact on saleability, Structa devised a scheme utilising the natural ground profile to incorporate a semi underground car park within the scheme. We created a BIM model of this proposal and presented a fly through video to planners in order to assist in obtaining the additional approval, which enabled creation of additional saleable lower ground floor accommodation on 4 of the units.

Structa provided all the civil and structural design for the project as well as assistance to the Architect with the proposed planning changes and negotiations with English heritage.
