This changing facility and equipment storage building for Gloucestershire County Council was part of a larger complex of buildings making up an outdoor education centre in the Cotswolds. The brief we received from the client, and developed with the help of the Centre’s staff, was very specific in terms of its function and architectural programme.
The building is heated using a very efficient lake source heat pump, the urinals are air-flushed to save on water and low flush WCs were installed. The site is a designated SSSI and is on a very narrow strip of land with a lake on one side and a river on the other. Before carrying out certain building works here, negotiations and approvals were needed from both Natural England and the Environment Agency.
