Completed in September 2005, this project, with steelwork by Caunton, has seen a struggling 1950’s Nottingham school with a 500-student capacity transformed into Bilborough College, a modern centre of excellence catering for 1300 pupils. The steelwork used comprised columns, roof steelwork and stairwell framing.
The development has already won a design award from the local Civic Society, and has more recently received the Lord Mayor's Prize for Architectural Excellence.
It was to be a local steelwork contractor working alongside a local main contractor, Bowmer and Kirkland, who created this vital community benefit. A good investment for the youth of the East Midlands.
