Six Houses, Tur Langton

Large Residential Scheme of the Year Award 2016 Winner

A derelict pub in a Conservation Area was replaced by six new houses in the village of Tur Langton.

The former Bull’s Head was next to a Grade II listed building and partially outside the village’s development boundary but a design was carefully crafted that won approval and enabled the sympathetic development.

There is a terrace of three three-bedroom houses echoing the footprint of the original pub along the front of the site. Behind are three five-bedroom detached houses.

Further Information

The Bull’s Head building had been in a state
 of disrepair for a number of years. The site rose in level and included a large area of hard-standing previously used as a car park and overgrown open land.

All the new homes were individually detailed to create their own
 character while sitting as a coherent whole 
within the village. Their siting and their relationship to the village was specifically 
considered to contribute to Tur Langton.

All the buildings are timber frame construction with brick outer leaf. This method of construction enables the buildings to achieve high levels
 of air tightness and insulation.
