The Bridgemaster’s House, Tower Bridge London

Situated on the banks of the Thames alongside Tower Bridge, this highly sensitive site is a collection of Grade I and Grade II Listed structures opposite the World Heritage site surrounding the Tower of London. In order to secure the long-term future of these buildings, we worked closely with Historic England and the local Conservation Officer to achieve a complicated set of permissions, allowing rationalisation of the space within the restored and extended red brick house and releasing the lower level workshops and yards for new retail units, a river-facing restaurant and a new bar in the old basement vaults.

The project included works to form a new glazed entrance to the Tower Bridge Museum, a glazed roof over the former coal yard alongside the former Tower Bridge boiler house and interventions into the Grade I Listed structure to provide new glazing in the arches, and new visitor toilets. We were also successfully able to work with the Client, contractors and operators, Historic England and Southwark Planners over a period of several years to obtain permissions for a dramatic new series of glazed interventions, transforming how this area is seen and used by the public, while maintaining appropriate sensitivity to the old fabric.
