Refurbishment & New Build
The former St Clements hospital is located on the Mile End Road, East London. The development consisted of refurbishment of five existing blocks and construction of five new blocks.
The existing buildings were build being used as a psychiatric hospital by the NHS until its recent closure. The original buildings were constructed in the 1850’s and were used as a Victorian work-house. The original scheme was funded by the then equivalent of the Greater London Authority who were housed in the front block, now referred to as the John Denham Building.
The proposal was to convert the existing building into residential units with the exception of the front John Denham building which would be utilised for community use.
