Article source: Paul Cashin Architects Paul Cashin Architects and Design Engine Architects have collaborated to complete the refurbishment and extension of a 17th Century Grade II Listed public house and restaurant in the village of Crawley, near Winchester. The building had deteoriated after being left unused and empty for a number of years. The scheme sought to redevelop and transform the premises to create a new destination and business at the heart of the community and surrounding area.  Image Courtesy © Richard Chivers

Alongside this, a new contemporary extension has been constructed that takes the form of a series of three articulated pitched roofs, reminiscent of rural and agricultural vernacular forms. These are arranged to provide a connection with the outdoors and create the impression of a series of interconnected outbuildings around walled courtyard garden spaces. The new structures are dressed in a black stained timber cladding.

The re-launch of The Fox has been hugely popular with locals and visitors alike, becoming once again the vibrant centre of the village and making a positive impact on the local economy through increased employment opportunities.
