CRANFORD PARK

HILLINGDON

The original mansion at Cranford Park was demolished in the 1940s leaving the Grade II stable block and subterranean cellars.

The surrounding park regeneration designed by CBA Landscape Architects as part of a NLHF grant aided project led to us being commissioned to carry out designs for new public facilities within the park, making the destination more attractive for visitors.

Superimposing the house plan over the cellars and, extruding up the room layouts, we created a new contemporary visitor centre in brick and Corten steel accommodating a new café as well as a vertical core down to the cellars below. The cellars, closed for over 50 years, will be used for events including pop-up cinema screenings and interpretation.
