Hilton Cottage
Lincoln
Weedon Architects have successfully obtained planning approval for a contemporary two-storey extension to the Grade II listed Hilton Cottage in Lincoln.
Constructed in red brick in the mid nineteenth century, this
Grade II listed building sits in the heart of the City of Lincoln Conservation
Area and is a prominent architectural feature within its immediate locale.
Contextual design has been the driving concept for the project. The solution is a modern interpretation of the traditional characteristics of the Cottage and the area’s vernacular.
The extension utilises the current unused spaces of the site and efficiently integrates the courtyard with the Cottage creating additional living spaces for the family. Externally, the design subtly echoes the surrounding architectural features and brings in valuable daylight to the cottage whilst maintaining privacy away from the street.
