The Provost and Fellows of Eton College
New Schools
Phase two of the development of New Schools sough to extend the Grade II listed structure and undertake an extensive reconfiguration and refurbishment of the existing building. The high-quality project provides a suite for the college's senior management team.
The two-storey masonry extension was designed to preserve, restore and embrace the historical architectural features which are now complimented by sympathetic and modern architectural detailing. This approach included a material pallet which blended with the listed structure, diaper brickwork and the utilisation of Cadeby stone carved to compliment the original enrichment.
​
The introduction of a glazed link reduced the impact on the building façade and provides a unique vista of the historical building.
​
Both Canon and New Schools Yard were refurbished to provide an external approach befitting of the calibre of the surrounding buildings.
Enabling phases to facilitate the project included the relocation of an existing sub-station into a bespoke enclosure and an independent demolition contract.
​
The project acts as the perfect gateway to the college and is the primary arrival point to the world-renowned Eton estate.
