The Herald Property Awards for Scotland 2016

Campbeltown Town Hall Conservation and Regeneration

Campbeltown Town Hall Conservation and Regeneration Project has recently won a Judges Special Award at the Herald Property Awards 2016.  This is a fantastic recognition for the sensitive restoration of this wonderful building at the heart of the local community.

A lottery grant was awarded to restore the historic town hall in Campbeltown, Argyll. Campbeltown Town Hall refurbishment is a community hub with offices to rent, conference and meeting facilities and a one-stop-shop for accessing services for local organisations and community activities.

This is a key element and focal point of the regeneration of Campbeltown town centre, with the Council eager to see the building operated by and for the benefit of the community, generating activity in the town centre and giving local people a community asset they can be proud of.

At the early stages of the project, Hulley and Kirkwood carried out renewable energy option studies with simple payback analysis. Annual energy consumption profiles were also created from which a mixed fuel strategy was developed in order to allow the Town Hall to obtain a new gas connection from the local town mains which has restricted capacity for new connections.

The building services have been designed to be as sympathetic as possible to the original features, including the refurbishment of existing ventilators and ornate light fittings. Simple to use, robust system choices feature throughout to avoid creating a complex maintenance burden on the Trust who will be responsible for the operation of the facility.

Quartermile

Quartermile, Edinburgh (Quartermile Developments) celebrated a hugely successful night at the third annual Scottish Property Awards on March 3, 2016 with the team scooping both the prestigious Development of the Year (Commercial Building) award for Quartermile 4 and Deal of the Year for the Cirrus Logic pre-let at Quartermile 4.

Scheduled for completion in April 2016, Quartemile 4 will provide 128,000 sq ft of Grade A office space in Edinburgh, helping to meet the city’s increasing demand for commercial space. The building’s distinguishing features include its contemporary floor-to-ceiling windows and roof terraces, which boast striking views of Edinburgh, The Meadows and the Pentland Hills.

The global company, which is headquartered in Austin, Texas, is to relocate from its existing Edinburgh premises to occupy four floors of Quartermile 4, covering 70,033 sq ft. With FanDuel set to occupy the remaining three floors of the building, the deal resulted in the building being 100 per cent let four months before practical completion.

Campbeltown Town Hall Conservation and Regeneration

Campbeltown Town Hall Conservation and Regeneration Project has recently won a Judges Special Award at the Herald Property Awards 2016.  This is a fantastic recognition for the sensitive restoration of this wonderful building at the heart of the local community.

A lottery grant was awarded to restore the historic town hall in Campbeltown, Argyll. Campbeltown Town Hall refurbishment is a community hub with offices to rent, conference and meeting facilities and a one-stop-shop for accessing services for local organisations and community activities.

This is a key element and focal point of the regeneration of Campbeltown town centre, with the Council eager to see the building operated by and for the benefit of the community, generating activity in the town centre and giving local people a community asset they can be proud of.

At the early stages of the project, Hulley and Kirkwood carried out renewable energy option studies with simple payback analysis. Annual energy consumption profiles were also created from which a mixed fuel strategy was developed in order to allow the Town Hall to obtain a new gas connection from the local town mains which has restricted capacity for new connections.

The building services have been designed to be as sympathetic as possible to the original features, including the refurbishment of existing ventilators and ornate light fittings. Simple to use, robust system choices feature throughout to avoid creating a complex maintenance burden on the Trust who will be responsible for the operation of the facility.

Lancashire Country Cricket Club

The new revitalised, renamed and radically transformed Emirates Old Trafford, Lancashire County Cricket Club has been awarded Project of the Year at the Stadium Business Awards 2014.  The Lancashire venue has hosted some of the most exciting matches in cricket history. The £20m redevelopment of the Old Trafford cricket ground has metamorphosed the historic venue into one of the country’s premier sporting destinations with two new grandstands, a revamp of the existing pavilion (with 15,000 seats extendable to 25,000 seats), state of the art new player and media facilities, a big screen and advanced floodlighting.  The wicket was also re-orientated to run north-south for the first time in 150 years. The new facilities were set to the highest new standards for International cricket providing a host of new educational and training opportunities for the local community.

Hulley & Kirkwood provided the M&E design system with sustainable features such as rainwater harvesting; solar hot water, low energy lighting, super insulation and inverter driven displacement ventilation. To provide the flexibility required, large power supplies were distributed within the raised floors to serve each of the suite split options; there are lighting control systems to each area and an in house PA system for speech and background music. H&K also provided the design of the new permanent floodlighting system consisting of four 53 metre high masts each with 107No. 1.5kW lamp “Green Generation” luminaires. Spill light was a key concern for this installation, not least due to its neighbouring residential situation; this has been successfully dealt with using luminaire light direction controllers and gun-sight aiming of the point sources.
