New
Convent - Croxteth, Liverpool
|
|
|
The
new convent was built in the front garden of the existing, and the
Sisters moved across prior to demolition. The brief was for the
building to be designed as two pairs of semi-detached houses with
a single storey link. This was in response to to a reduction in
the number of Sisters, and with a view to partial sale of parts
of the property if the numbers continue to decline. There are 12
bedrooms at first floor level (4 en-suite), with a guest bedroom/sickroom
at ground floor level, together with all the usual communal rooms.
The site has been extensively landscaped with a secure garden to
the rear allowing privacy and security for the sisters. The project
was completed in October 2001. |
