The Afterlife Picture 1

The conversion of this Victorian church school house proved to be a mammoth task for the developers; the plan to convert it from a virtually derelict building into five luxury houses was indeed a huge task.

Before any internal work could begin the building had to be shored up and made safe, much of it rebuilt, ancient timbers replaced or treated for woodworm and reworked. All the basic amenities needed to be installed such as running water, sewerage and electricity.

Dividing walls and stair cases all had their own challenges because of the extremely high ceilings and the enormous windows had to be replicated in some parts of the building in order to satisfy the needs of the planners in this sympathetic restoration.
