Tower Hamlets Town Hall, London

Tower Hamlets Town Hall, London

Working in collaboration with Ian Chalk Architects, we are appointed as the Conservation Specialist within the Design Guardian team role to the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. The project includes the repair, refurbishment and extension of the Grade II listed Former Royal London Hospital in Whitechapel. The former hospital will become the new Tower Hamlets Town Hall. The project commenced on site in 2019 and was completed in 2023. Our work includes liaison with the local authority planning and conservation officers, the lead architects Allford Hall Monaghan & Morris, their conservation architects Richard Griffiths Architects and the main contractor, under a Design and Build Contract. We have recently been consulted on repairs to the facades, methodologies for the repair to the chapel and proposals for the external windows to retained facades.
