Judges Comments: this project addressed virtually all the criteria of excellence on which the awards were judged. It is highly contextual – an appropriate addition to an old building. It is very well thought out and planned, with excellent workmanship. And it is a model of sustainability. All for around £60,000. A model of how rural buildings should be extended. And equally significant as a workplace, showing how new sources of employment can fit into the rural scene.
