PROJECT NAME: DOWN AMPNEY MANOR

Main Contractor:
Kingerlee Ltd.

Description:
Restoration, new build and stone flooring.

Architects: Peter Yiangou Associates LLP.

Materials:
Elm Park Bath stone.

Features:
Of outstanding historical importance, Down Ampney Manor in Gloucestershire demanded absolute compliance to the technical and aesthetic intricacies of the architectural plans.

A single story extension featuring gothic mullioned windows and castellated entablature was
replicated throughout the first floor extension, conservatory wing and swimming pool pavilion.

The chimney installation presented a particular challenge when it was discovered that the
supporting masonry also needed replacing resulting in it’s removal in a single piece to eliminate
damage to the carved sections whist the sub-structure was replaced.

“It was only through Meister Masonry’s insight and skill that it was possible for our team to complete this
operation without costly delay in both time and finance”
David Paul, Senior Contracts Manager, Kingerlee Ltd Contractors, Oxford.

“An installation such as this required specialist management and this in turn resulted in this
project being selected by merit and featured in the RIBA annual publication”

“Peter Yiangou Associates LLP worked successfully with the masonry team on this prestigious
Grade 1 listed property and were most impressed by their stone masonry skills in conservation
and craftsmenship”.
Peter Yiangou Associates.
