Instructions received for Two New Science Centres.
Continuing Feltham’s high profile in the education sector, we have recently been successful in securing two separate but prestigious projects at Hampton School and Bradfield College. Both projects will provide new science teaching space and are valued at circa £3 million.
The projects have been assessed under the BREEAM Education scheme and need to achieve a very good (Hampton School) and excellent (Bradfield College) ratings.
This is being applied to an increasing number of projects, in all sectors, and helps us demonstrate (as an industry) that we both care and are serious about our responsibilities to constructing in an environmentally responsible manner.
The Oxfordshire Golf Club
Construction is well underway on the new four star Hotel at The Oxfordshire Golf Club. On completion in June 2010, the scheme will provide 54 bedrooms, pool & leisure complex and extended dining facilities and help maintain the club’s position as one of the UK’s leading golf courses. In order to comply with local Planning conditions, over 6000 cubic metres of spoil have been excavated to enable the building to nestle into the ground and blend with its surroundings.
