This project comprised the sensitive and
meticulous repair of a Grade II listed
farmhouse. Works included careful repairs
to roofs, brickwork and timber frames, and
the successful use of hot-mixed lime mortar.
Many medieval details were revealed during
construction, such as a window with shutter
grooves and diamond mullions, timber stop
beads dating back to c1550, and two
painted medieval timber braces dating from
c.1500–1550.

The judges said
The outstanding impression is of attention to detail. Thorough research was
carried out by the client, the design team and the contractor to understand
and conserve the significant features and use appropriate materials and
techniques. These range from the remains of the original painted timber
frame (with witch marks) to the penny-struck brick joints. The result is a
house that at first glance is an appealing family home that steadily becomes
more and more impressive as each additional detail is noticed.

The BREAM Excellent £47 million scheme was completed in early 2018 and is
already almost fully occupied. The scheme provides commercial units at
ground floor level, with spacious office accommodation above.
The building was designed to complement and reflect the train station
opposite and has helped to regenerate the area to a very high standard. The
location and design is almost certain to be a long term success in an
upcoming, vibrant and attractive area for businesses and tourists alike.

The judges said
Glenwood School is an excellent example of how a project team can have such
a positive impact on the specialist community the building provides for and
the surrounding community. Glenwood School, which opened last September,
was driven forward by Essex County Council, the School, Pick Everard and
Morgan Sindall. Built on land adjacent to the existing Glenwood School allowed
for the Project team to get to know the specialist requirements that the pupils
would need as well as providing the opportunity for the more abled pupils to
carry out weekly site visits during the construction to witness progress. The
project team ensured that the wider community where taking into account
from the very start by designing bus drop offs and increasing the number of
car parking spaces which has already had a positive impact on the local
community. The community were also involved in providing fundraising for
specialist equipment successfully raising over £100,000.

The judges said
The building is designed to put the UK at the cutting edge of research and
development into new aviation technologies. The building answers the brief,
whilst also providing flexibility in its design to adapt for the future, allowing its
researchers to take their ideas from ‘theory to flight’. The project also
enables education and industry to work hand-in-hand, with significant
funding being provided from leading aviation companies. A credit to the UK
aviation and development industry.

The judges said
The project transformed an abandoned former Royal Air Force hanger into an
inspirational aviation academy. This academy is breathing new life into a
rundown industrial estate, whilst offering teaching and learning facilities for
students and industry staff. The success of the scheme has seen companies
such as KLM expand its training offer within the UK, but also the
redevelopment of the surrounding estate to support and expand the current
teaching offer. The full size operational aircraft contained within part of the
hangar is quite a sight.

Eddington – the first phase of the North West Cambridge Development by the
University of Cambridge is admirably tackling the affordable housing
challenges in the city whilst creating a mixed community, incorporating
quality and sustainable homes for University key-workers and the wider
community. Eddington is more than just a housing development. The first
phase is delivering a new place complete with a landmark community
building, primary school, supermarket, parklands and sports pitches which
are open to the wider community to enjoy.

The judges said
The building provides panoramic views of the Naze Tower, cliffs and reserve. It
is cleverly designed not to be imposing and to emphasise the historic Naze
Tower. The scheme offers an all-year-round visitor attraction.
The centre teams up with local companies, charities and trusts to expand the
outreach and exposure of the area. Over 3000 school children from local
areas and further afield have visited since completion last year and local
volunteers are assisting in making this an on-going success.
