Case study
Bathroom and M&E intervention in a Grade II* house
Grade II* listed Spitalfields silk-weaver's house
Challenge
An owner wanted three new bathrooms and modern M&E in a house with surviving panelling and original plan form, with Historic England a statutory consultee.
Approach
Vestige worked with the architect on a routing strategy that avoided historic fabric, then produced a heritage statement and impact analysis benchmarked to the Spitalfields Conservation Area appraisal and the listing description.
Outcome
Listed building consent granted with no Historic England objection and only minor pre-commencement conditions on services chases.
