Working across two of Cumbria’s most fascinating medieval sites, Burneside Hall and Gleaston Castle, we undertook an extensive programme of architectural investigation, condition surveys, and feasibility studies 🏰
The project explored each site’s 14th-16th century history, assessing their structural condition and developing costed repair and conservation strategies aimed at securing their future and removing them from the Heritage at Risk Register.
By analysing significance, repair needs, and sustainable reuse potential, we’ve helped lay the groundwork for future conservation and redevelopment - ensuring these remarkable fortified sites continue to tell their story for generations to come ✨

In the heart of Newcastle, Plummer House, a Grade II listed 1910 landmark, has been carefully reimagined as part of a major student accommodation development providing over 250 bed spaces 🛏️
As conservation consultants, we guided the sensitive refurbishment of the historic building and ballroom, ensuring every new intervention - from mezzanine apartments to a new four-storey staircase - respected the character and fabric of the original architecture.
Through detailed surveys, heritage assessments, and design coordination, we helped ensure that the old and new coexist seamlessly, preserving the building’s story while supporting its vibrant new life 🏛️✨
