The Design Process
The site is historically significant, having been occupied by St Bartholomew's Priory and with St Bartholomew's Hospital located to the south of Little Britain. A Heritage Assessment has been completed by Heritage Collective, which describes the distinct character of the conservation area that has evolved over centuries. This influenced the decision to retain three of the hospital's existing facades.
The planning application was submitted on 24/02/2012 and Planning Consent was given on 29/05/2013. A further Planning Application went in on 01/07/2013 relating to the revised external appearance of Abernethy/Dominion House, and consent for this was given on 17/08/2013.
