Manor Park Road
London
The proposed development consists of the demolition of an existing single storey supermarket building and the construction of a new three storey mixed-use development, including a single storey basement.
The site lies at the top of a cutting with National Rail lines running parallel to Manor Road below. A ground movement and slope stability analysis was carried out to ensure that the new development would not cause unacceptable movements to any rail assets below.
In order to maximise the available site footprint, the new building carefully wraps around and behind an existing Grade 2 listed Victorian residential property which fronts on to Manor Road. A detailed and carefully considered construction sequence was required to ensure the excavation of the basement
would not cause detrimental effects on the surrounding buildings.
