Client - Trustees Ince Blundell Hall 

Location - Liverpool

Construction Cost - 650k

Due to complete October 2021
Originally built in 1980, the building was designed by the brother of renowned Architect, Edward Cullinan. The site was used for many years as a monks retreat until it fell into a state of disrepair. 

Harrison Architects Studio was appointed to undertake a full feasibility study reimagining different possible uses and users for the existing building to suit modern day needs. Following this exploration it was decided that the building's heritage should live on in the form of a guesthouse, welcoming people of all faiths. 

Work was completed in 2021. During this time we have overseen the full refurbishment, addition of a new extension and external landscaping works.
