Project overview

The conversion of this existing mill has resulted in a dramatic and striking build, which is set in the magnificent County Down Drumlin landscape. The clients themselves were heavily involved in all stages of design and detailing. This has produced a fine example of how MRPx's operatives can deliver a quality product.

Quintin Castle

Location
Portaferry

Hardy Planning and Design

Project date
2002/03

Project overview

This unique castle was in an advanced state of delapidation and approaching dereliction when MRPx were entrusted with the restoration work.

The building was stripped out with just the main walls remaining. All the original features were incorporated back into the new scheme and this called upon a wide range of skills and traditional techniques being used.

We are presently engaged on phase two of the refurbishment of the property in its entirety, dealing now with the out-buildings, the extensive garden walls and battlements and the gardens themselves.

Project overview

This extensive property was in a severe state of disrepair, and required all the skills in MRPx's repertoire to achieve what can only be described as a magnificent end result. Indeed, the property was used by the BBC to film a period drama and this surely is testament to the clients' and architects unswerving belief in conserving the finest traditional designs of the property.
