Stourport Civic Society - Awards 2000
(Sponsored by Thomas Vale Construction Limited)
Four entries were assessed for the Award to be presented for the project which most contributes to the quality and environment of Stourport. The winners were : No. 1 Mill Road – repair of a fine Edwardian house, including the sliding sash windows, exterior paintwork and internal decoration.
A beautiful house, with a simple symmetry and some very fine details, which has been carefully restored and thankfully continues to be properly cared for. An excellent example to all. We considered this worthy of an Award.
Nos. 5 and 7 Lombard Street – refurbishment and creation of two self-contained flats over the shops.
Assessors' comments:
This project was considered worthy of a Commendation and is an excellent example to others to follow. There are plenty of opportunities for this type of project in Stourport which will bring life back to the town centre and make better use of empty upper floors. In particular the careful reinstatement of sash windows shows what could be done for the rest of the terrace.
