The conversion of a grade ll listed tythe barn and adjoining agricultural building in Edgefield, Norfolk to a new family home.


The appearance and design of the building is a balance between an agricultural aesthetic and the contemporary needs of a modern dwelling. Working to retain the majority of the existing fabric, any new works are seen as complimentary to the heritage or distinctly modern to express the difference between new and old.


Both existing structures have minor alterations, retaining and repairing brickwork, flint work and roof tiling. The appearance of the main barn from Rectory Road will be relatively unchanged, with the piggery outer flint walls also retained to support a new floating standing seam pitched roof.
