BHN have had a long standing relationship with the Restaurant owners of No.4 Butcher Row in Shrewsbury, undertaking various Planning Applications on a Grade II listed building.
The proposal removed the roof from the later single storey extension to No.4 and build off the existing masonry wall to provide a first floor extension and ‘Bridge Link’ to the adjacent property of No.23A St Mary’s Street.
The proposed first floor is built up from the existing masonry walls and be primarily supported by a new structural timber frame that supports a proposed mezzanine.
The proposed mezzanine is located so that it is displaced from the original rear façade of No.4 Butcher Row. In between the existing rear façade and the mezzanine is a double height space - where the contrast between old and new can be clearly seen.
The proposed first floor extension is clad with black stained timber to provide a contrast to the existing red brick. A bridge link stitches together No 4 and 23a. The black timber cladding echoes the Tutor buildings prominent in Shrewsbury Town Centre . The ambition was to create a modern extension in a urban setting. A building sympathetic to its context but with a distinct contemporary quality.
The combination of old and new gives this project its distinct identity. It provide a sustainable solution to heritage assets in the town centre, while, at the same time offering a contemporary architectural experience.
Prior to this project, No. 23A St Mary’s street was a small, isolated building in an existing car park, set well back from the street. This project has brought this building back into the public realm – connecting it directly from Butcher Row. It has a unique first floor space, well-proportioned with exposed timber trusses, which can now be enjoyed by the public.
