Brief description

https://programme.openhouse.org.uk/listings/12422

"The Grade II listed Victorian complex, originally built between 1865 – 1906, is one of London’s most iconic civic buildings. After a devastating fire in 2013, it was placed in the Heritage at Risk Register and closed. Now, after sensitive restoration by Feix & Merlin and General Projects, it reopens its doors. With a modern CLT extension that celebrates its former glory while embracing its future."

"General Projects have been granted consent to sympathetically restore the iconic South London listed landmarks, the former Walworth Town Hall and Newington Library, as an employment, education and community hub. Working collaboratively with Southwark Council, Historic England, and the local community, the properties will be transformed into a proud place of diverse opportunity, open to all members of the community. The workspaces, designed especially for small to medium-sized enterprises and local businesses, are expected to bring over 370 jobs into the building, producing a new employment hub for the creative industries, SMEs, as well as independent and local businesses."
