BARN CONVERSION SWINDON

In order to achieve a two storey internal height, the floor level in this Grade II listed barn had to be lowered below ground (water table) level.

New foundations had to be constructed below the existing, and new walls had to be built up to the underside of the existing.

The newly created partial basement had to be “tanked” and a land drain constructed around the exterior perimeter to prevent water/damp ingress.

The existing timber frame structure had to be repaired/strengthened to details approved by the Local Authority Conservation Officer.
