Westminster School
The project converted a dilapidated Army facility into a music
department for a public school in the centre of Westminster, London.
Generally the building required substantial renovation including new
mechanical and electrical installations, a new roof and re-levelled
floors and ceilings. The challenges of a landlocked site with limited space
were overcome when the basement was extended to
provide additional space.
The ground and upper floors were converted into
performance areas and lecture rooms.
The acoustic performance of the building was critical and
sound insulation; reverberation measures and sound
attenuation were also installed.

the works and ensuring, through tender analysis and effective
budgeting / cost control, that the client receive value for money.

GNA were selected in a consultant surveyor capacity during phase 1

construction of the N.E.T system in Nottingham and its subsequent
extension.
As principle Party Wall surveyor; GNA were commissioned to handle
boundary disputes and issues that invoked the application of the Party
Wall Act during construction and planning.
The nature of the works undertaken combined with the scope
of residential and commercial properties affected by the
works, meant it was vital that any boundary disputes were
resolved swiftly and professionally.
GNA’s expertise in boundary dispute resolution and that of
being one of only a select few Party Wall surveyors in the
East Midlands, made us the perfect choice.

The previously unoccupied School building was given a new lease of

residents and living accommodation for a live-in warden.
Due to the length of time the building had remained unoccupied, it had
fallen into a derelict state.
Structurally, the existing structure had to be restabilised and
extensive repairs had to be made to the roof structure.
Internally, the grade II listing building was retrofitted to modern
standard creating a comfortable and high quality feel to the rooms.
Working in partnership with our construction partners Guy Taylor
Associates, GNA are proud to see this historic building being
returned to its former splendour.
