Lesbury

Client: The Northumberland Estates

Location: Front Street, Lesbury, Northumberland

Status: Complete

A new residential insertion into the historic fabric of Lesbury. The scheme was originally conceived as a larger proposal which included the demolition of a number of dilapidated properties, replacing them with new stone built 1 and 2 storey cottages as well as a new post office. A smaller development was realised to the rear of front street, with 8 bungalows arranged in a strong linear form. The design of the dwellings are reflective and complimentary to the character of the Lesbury Conservation Area, with stone facing, copings and window surrounds allowing the scheme congruence within the locality.
