Leading architects Wright & Wright were also recognised for their contribution to the town at 4-5 Queen Street & Quinlan Terry Architects for their clever re-ordering and integration of a new gallery and staircase at St Ebbe’s Church.
In the County the community at Beckley were delighted to receive their award for their new Village Hall and Hook Norton Brewery, for the refurbishment of their former malthouse into a restaurant.
