Sedum Roof at Yorkshire Agricultural Centre

Following Ben’s post on green roofs, here’s the sedum one at the Yorkshire Agricultural Centre.  The intrepid Heather Parry is pictured with Stuart Falshaw giving the roof some TLC.  This piece was in the Yorkshire Post on 14th March.

After an entertaining planning committee panel yesterday, P+HS gained planning permission for Tinshill Medical Centre. Approval of the exact design details have been deferred for the case officer to approve, but we have already been working closely with the planning team to ensure that the crispness of the design is followed through thoroughly.

The medical centre, on Old Otley Road in north Leeds, is approximately 1700m2, and includes pharmacy and GP facilities.

The previously open recovery area has been enclosed inline with the requirements of HBN26.  Tormax glass sliding doors have been introduced, with split sandblasting, to provide privacy for patients and still maintain an visual link between Theatre staff.
