Duration: 60 weeks
Start on site: 20th October 2014
An extension to the existing main building, which currently holds 83 self-contained flats, has begun on site. Speller Metcalfe has been contracted to construct a new four storey building in three phases as part of The Orchard development:
Phase 2: 34 self-contained units (30 one-bed and 4 two-bed) over four storeys, traditional construction with rainscreen cladding, beam and block ground floor and pre-cast concrete planks to upper floors with a single ply roof;
Phase 2A: Development of the professional standard catering kitchen and coffee bar, lobby, entrance, training rooms and offices over two storeys. These are of steel frame construction with brick and block cavity. Timber rainscreen cladding creates a contemporary feel to the building.
Phase 3: Multi-use hall, changing and store rooms, training and break-out rooms.
This project follows two other successful schemes by Speller Metcalfe for the YMCA Cheltenham and the YMCA Gloucester.
This special development is set to complete by the end of 2015.
