We are delighted to confirm that the works at Peninsula Square, Winchester are near complete with the house having now been fully decorated. An exciting colour pallet has been selected by the clients, which delivers bright and dynamic spaces to this Grade II listed building.

The timber skeleton of a former agricultural barn laid bare! Radley House Partnership are undertaking inspections of the repair and alterations to a range of non-listed barns and the former farmhouse, which are being converted into residential use. The development is being carried out by local developer TN Developments. Radley House previously applied for a section 73 planning application to alter the previously consent scheme and produced the detailed design package. We hope to bring you further updates as the works near completion.
Radley House Partnership are pleased to be mentioned in the 22nd of February 2023 edition of Country Life magazine.

Although the mention is in reference to our involvement with the Treasury, more recently we have been orchestrating the repair and re-presentation of the Grade I listed Old Cloister and War Cloister (pictured below). Works to these structures include specialist masonry cleaning, paint restoration and drainage improvements and both are featured within the series of articles.

A new beautifully crafted staircase has now been fitted at this Grade II listed townhouse in Peninsula Square, Winchester.

Essential repair works to the Cradle Tower at the Tower of London are due to be carried out this summer. Radley House Partnership have been involved with the research, design and specification of the specialist masonry repairs required. To facilitate the conservation works a scaffold and hording have been erected around the west end of the structure to enable sensitive opening-up and investigation to further inform the extent of repairs required.
A planning application for 9no new luxury family homes has been submitted to Winchester City Council. Designed as traditional Georgian houses, the proposals take advantage of the site’s steep gradient to deliver wonderful views to each home.
The scheme is also complemented by a beautiful landscaping scheme which will tie the proposals with Chilbolton Avenue’s verdant surroundings.
Radley House Partnership are pleased to be working on a large refurbishment project in the Cotswolds for one of our important long-standing clients.
This large and highly unusual building of considerable architectural quality has been mothballed for many years. The aim will be to bring parts of it back into life, updated to new uses and modern standards with a focus on sustainability.
The design work is progressing but still at an early stage. We hope to bring you more as things develop.
The internal fit-out of the study centre has now been completed, which is the final part of this unique project. The design includes a contemporary, bespoke conference table, which is octagonal to reflect the central oculus above, ingenious folding study desks around the drum perimeter, and bespoke shelving to the archive area. The furniture perfectly complements the architectural design language and is well regarded by the school and its students.

Re-roofing and repair of a grade II listed farmhouse in the Hampshire countryside on a (very) cold and frosty winters morning.
Radley House Partnership are overseeing the repairs, which are due to finish in the new year.
We are pleased to announce that proposals for a new light industrial development have now been submitted to Eastleigh Borough Council for determination.
The proposals are for an exemplar light industrial scheme designed to achieve a BREEAM ‘Excellent’ rating and includes a substantive and integrated landscaping scheme and ecology strategy
The bespoke design of the proposed buildings is informed by the site’s characteristics as a former farmstead, within the countryside.
While materials selected reflect the site’s agricultural past, they have also been implemented to break up the visual mass. ‘Blocks’ of timber cladding have been applied to imitate a collection of structures. This is amplified by using a variety of cladding finishes for each block and through the positioning of openings. Each block of cladding is also broken up by planting to create separation and give the impression of a series of individual rural buildings.
Following the closure of the Winchester office of longstanding conservation practice Seymour & Bainbridge Architects, we are pleased to welcome senior conservation architect Fiona Hudd into our fold.
Fiona, who is AABC accredited, was at Seymour & Bainbridge for 13 years having qualified with an MSc in Historic Conservation from Oxford Brookes University.
Fiona’s passion for conservation and the historic environment is self-evident and her portfolio includes personal appointments at over 30 churches, as well as the major refurbishment of the grade II* listed Police Barracks at Haslar Gunboat Yard in Gosport and reordering of the mediaeval church of St Michael’s in Winchester for Winchester College.
As such she will be a valuable addition to our team here at Radley House Partnership.
Works to the outbuildings at this country estate have recently come to an end, bringing to a close an extensive 4-year plus programme of renovation works that started in late 2017. The fascinating house at the centre of the estate dates from the mid nineteenth century and is grade II listed, therefore the upgrade, repairs and alterations have been carefully considered to minimise impact and have been carried out to the highest possible standard. The range of high-quality outbuildings include greenhouses, follies, potting shed, gardeners’ cottage and guest cottage, and are by association curtilage listed, therefore the same care and attention has gone into their refurbishment.
However, the buildings are not the end of the story.
The grounds themselves are being re-landscaped including new driveways, parking areas, pathways, retaining walls, planting beds, wrought iron railings and bespoke gates. Radley House Partnership continue to be involved with these works, which are ongoing and due for completion within the next year or so.
