Patrick & Mary De Saulles

Awards from the Shrewsbury Civic Society and an RIBA Commendation for the rehabilitation and conversion of derelict wharfage buildings to a pair of luxury riverside town houses. Recent amateur conversions have caused the introduction of very restrictive Planning legislation. Nevertheless, it is still possible to devise practical and imaginative conversion schemes on which to negotiate approvals. Apart from legislative constraints, old buildings often have an exceptional personality which can be adapted to form new character.
