The Gate House

The Project

This iconic building in Poynings is very well known and completely unique in look, style and arrangement,. The clients took on the huge restoration project with a clear goal in mind to bring the property back to modern standards and better configure the layout internal and make a feature of the internal courtyard space. The extended parts allow the kitchen and entrance spaces to better flow and connect the stable wings, while the new garden arrangement brings the beauty of the South Downs onto the site.

Design Challenge

Working with the SDNP presented a really nice opportunity to use the existing building form and enhance this with local building styles, techniques and well sourced materials to bring the property into a new use. It was a well thought out process to ensure both the owners, national park and local community were happy with the final look of this unique building.
