The new three storey extension was constructed using a cross-laminated timber frame structure and provide accommodation along with a staff house for Bishop’s Stortford College.

The appearance of the building remained largely unchanged and was restored to its original condition.

The work included asbestos removal within the existing boiler room and other parts of the building. Other works included the demolition of the existing boiler house, kitchen, office and dining room to the North Eastern corner of the site. As part of the demolition phase, the existing façade, running parallel to Maze Green Road was temporarily propped, supported and eventually tied back into the new internal structure.
