Given the value of the Grade I and II listed buildings to the nation, meticulous efforts have gone into their restoration. Wherever possible, original materials were used, from sash windows to cast-iron columns. War damaged bricks were matched and covered in soot to replicate the original. Current and future phases comprise contemporary architecture, sympathetic to the existing surroundings.
Every last detail has been painstakingly thought through.
