The Challenge

Kendal Road Baptist Church sits in the heart of Longlevens in Gloucester. Originally built in 1943, an incredible achievement at such a time, the Church had an equally stunning vision for 2016. Surrounded by a densely populated residential area the old church was carefully demolished. In its place, a modern steel frame structure was built on concrete piles incorporating state of the art AV systems and a recessed baptistery. The new building provides the Church with an inspirational place to worship with light and air filling the main hall and great acoustic detailing throughout.

"Now that we are at the end of the 2 projects I just wished to thank you both personally, and on behalf of the school for your support and determination in making both the projects a success. The end product in both areas is really pleasing and been well received. Coming in on budget was just the icing on the cake. I look forward to working with you both in the future."
