Full speed ahead to complete major extension in Taunton

Eleven10 are delighted to have achieved planning permission for a major extension to the existing premises at Wellsprings Community Church, Taunton, to provide a new entrance and welcome area to the front of the main building, together with other improvements and general updating.

The proposed works are due to begin this year and will enable WCC to have an increased involvement in, and impact on, the local community, providing a key point of contact for those in need and a resource for social interaction. Improving their ability to accommodate an increasing number of adults, children and young people who they support and have contact with throughout the week.

The building improvements include :

  • a new well-lit entrance and welcome area with a new permanent café area

  • new access direct into the refurbished church hall, along with a new glazed and sliding acoustic wall

  • an enlarged and purpose designed commercial kitchen

  • improved limited mobility and wheelchair-friendly access to the main hall and to other rooms (all DDA compliant)

  • new accessible toilet

  • a new, more efficient heating system

Planning permission for conversion of a listed building in Taunton

We are delighted with a positive outcome for the planning application for the conversion of a listed commercial building to residential use.

The scheme will provide 8 new modern flats of a high standard and have a project value of approximately £2m.  We are grateful for a very proficient professional team and the positive approach taken by Taunton Dean Borough Council.

construction started on extension of Elphicks of Farnham

For the past year we have worked closely with the brilliant management team of Elphicks Department Store to expand and upgrade their building, thereby playing a small role in securing the future success of the store in Farnham.

Our role has entailed the development of the business brief and the subsequent procurement processes which included planning applications within a conservation area, working with a listed building and management of the M&E and internal retail design and tender processes.

The proposed extension will enable Elphicks to move their bed store to their premises as well as expand and change their current merchandise.  

Part of the brief is the renewal of redundant mechanical services of the building which will reduce the CO2 production of the building services drastically. The replaced system will serve the store with greater efficiency.
