Crucifix Lane
Overview
Carrying out fit out works to 2nr arches, including infill stone and brick restoration to heritage standards.
Scope
A full list of works is outlined as follows:
- Fit-out works to two existing arches, including restoration of infill stone and brickwork to achieve heritage standard compliance
- Installation of arch linings to enhance structural finish and internal aesthetics
- Full electrical installation to support operational requirements within the units
- Supply and installation of bespoke timber windows and doors in keeping with heritage design
- Installation of louvres and associated ventilation elements
- Provision of utility connections and infrastructure
- Mechanical and electrical (M&E) services installation to support building functionality
- High-quality finishing works including detailed stonework, brickwork, joinery, and internal/external decoration
Challenges & Solutions
Delivering a standard of viaduct stonework that met heritage requirements was a key objective. Scaffold adaptations were designed to accommodate the evolving shape of the arch infills, and arch linings were fabricated to fit around existing apertures within the arches.
A significant challenge involved integrating bespoke louvres and windows to match the layouts of neighbouring arches while ensuring they fit within the individual existing infills of the arches being worked on.
