Built 1790, the now residence, sits within a conservation area, and at time of works, was not listed, giving the opportunity to convert the roof space for additional accommodation. The only change to the exterior was the addition of the dormer, allowing the staircase to access the space, above the existing ground to first stairs. The intreriors were again worked with the client, and was built installing an engineered steel frame, as the existing structure proved to be insufficient.
