“HEATHER GRANGE, FORMALLY THE VICARAGE TO THE LOCAL PARISH CHURCH, IS SITUATED WITHIN THE CONSERVATION AREA OF THE VILLAGE OF SHERIFF HUTTON, NORTH YORKSHIRE. FOLLOWING THE APPOINTMENT OF TALBOT CONSTRUCTION TO CARRY OUT THE WORKS THE DESIGN WAS TOTALLY REVIEWED UNDER THE INSTRUCTION OF THE CLIENT. TALBOT'S WORKING CLOSELY WITH DARNTONEGS ARCHITECTS WHO TOOK OVER FROM THE ORIGINAL DESIGNERS FOR THIS PROJECT, WERE ABLE TO TABLE REVISED DRAWINGS WITHIN A MATTER OF DAYS ALL OF WHICH MET THE CLIENTS REQUIREMENTS. DURING THE DEMOLITIONS OF THE EXISTING BUILDING, AN HISTORIC RAINWATER CATCHMENT TANK WAS EXPOSED AS WELL AS AN INTERNAL WELL, THIS TOGETHER WITH AN ARCHAEOLOGICAL WATCHING BRIEF AND THE UNCOVERING OF PREVIOUSLY CONCEALED YORK STONE FLOORING ENSURED THE PROJECT WAS OF GREAT INTEREST TO ALL INVOLVED. THIS PROJECT WAS A TRUE TURNKEY OPERATION AS TALBOT'S BECAME RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SUPPLY AND INSTALLATION OF THE HANDMADE BESPOKE KITCHEN FURNITURE WITH SOLID GRANITE WORKTOPS AND RECLAIMED TERRACOTTA FLOORING TILES SOURCED FROM ITALY.”
