Exciting feasibility concept designs for a new contemporary museum building, located at a historic former aerodrome.
The architectural form of the building draws influence from the early canvas Bessonneau field hangers that were once located on the site, during World War One.
Internally the large, glazed façades draw the airfield and wider countryside into the exhibition space, to provide a contextual backdrop for the exhibited historic aircraft.
We are pleased to kick start the year with Planning Approval for a Radley House designed housing development, at the former Ashfield Tyre Depot, Romsey.
This new scheme was approved at committee earlier this week.
Using a traditional style of architecture, the proposals will deliver 29 family homes on a redundant brown field site, located within the countryside.
Recently submitted planning application for the replacement of a single storey commercial unit with a traditional detached house in a residential area of Shedfield. The design is reflective of local vernacular buildings and provides for the continuation of the developed road frontage.
A package of alterations and upgrade works have recently been completed at this contemporary house in Chilworth. Radley House Partnership oversaw the design of the first phase internal remodelling, which included the addition of this unusual ‘wine wall’ wall divider! The house was built using an innovative insulated concrete formwork (ICF) system which required careful manipulation to retain its structural properties.
Radley House Partnership are pleased to announce that we are now proud sponsors of Sholing Football Club.

Works to extend and alter this Grade II Listed farmhouse in the South Downs were completed earlier this year and it has recently been photographed by Greg Moss – see below.
Radley House Partnership designed a large contemporary extension to replace a former outbuilding to the rear of the farmhouse, retaining similar form and massing. A glazed link connects the two buildings. These works were carried out in conjunction with a full refurbishment of the farmhouse and numerous external works including a natural swimming pool.
The package of specialist repair and conservation works at the Grade I Listed War Cloister (1924), Winchester College, was completed last May and has recently been entered for the City of Winchester Trust Awards.
Radley House Partnership oversaw the sensitive restoration of paintwork to each of the commemorative plaques and bosses along with stone repairs and cleaning. The works were carried out by specialist conservators from Sally Strachey Historic Conservation. Photography is courtesy of Greg Moss.
Private House, Shawford
We are pleased to confirm that a planning application has recently been submitted by Radley House Partnership for a replacement dwelling in the village of Shawford, Hampshire.
The scheme is for a traditional Queen Anne style house, which will be an exciting addition to the semi-rural street scene. Large windows draw in natural light and frame views of the surrounding gardens.
The observant among you that have visited our website before may have noticed that it is now bursting with additional, recently completed projects, such as the Haslar Police Barracks and the Jill Issac Building.
Photos for the majority of the new projects have been captured by Photographers Greg Moss, Ben wood and Christopher Horwood. The latter being provided courtesy of Artichoke Ltd.
Many of these projects have also been featured in news updates over the past few years so check-out some of our earlier posts to see the progress made.

Big thanks to our AABC conservation accredited architect and Director, Jeremy Poll, for his fascinating guided tour of the buildings at Winchester College last week.
The office outing gave our staff the opportunity to see some of the specialised repair and conservation work undertaken by the practice.
Particular focus was given to the Grade I Listed War Cloister (1924), where Jeremy is currently overseeing a comprehensive package of repair and re-presentations works.
The quadrangle War Cloister was designed by renowned architect Sir Herbert Baker as a war memorial to commemorate college students (Wykehamists) that were killed during the First World War. The sensitive restoration of paintwork to each of the commemorative plaques and bosses is the current focus of attention and is being carried out by specialist paint conservators from Sally Strachey Historic Conservation.
The completed traditional house at The Tallet. This flint clad building is the last house to be completed and the largest of the houses designed by Radley House for the former agricultural site.
In contrast, pictures of the contemporary barn style unit opposite were posted below on the 12th of January.
Works have begun on Haccups Lane in Michelmersh, for the construction of 3 detached family homes. The houses are partially sunken into the hillside, requiring significant ground works and basement retaining structures. As perhaps to be expected, site conditions at this time of year are presenting a challenge!
The last post for this project was in June 2022, where images of the proposed houses, designed by Radley House, can be found.
The repair and refurbishment of this highly unusual Edwardian house on the Solent coast is drawing to an end after a significant programme of works that has spanned the last 4 years. Radley House Partnership are delighted and proud to have been the architects and lead consultants behind such a wonderful scheme. Working with a variety of skilled professionals and craftsmen, the house, which is compartmentalised into a number of individual apartments for family members, has been comprehensively restored incorporating a number of alterations and upgrades to bring it into the 21st century.
We recently commissioned a set of photos by Greg Moss that were taken on a bright, crisp January morning, which capture its theatrical, piecemeal appearance and wonderful coastal location.
More information, including a dedicated project page, will be available on our website in the coming months.
Kicking off 2024 with another completed project! Works have come to an end at The Tallet in Stockbridge, Hampshire. This scheme, pictured on a very cold winters morning, is for 3 large, detached units on a sloping site for local developer Wykeham Homes. The building pictured is a barn style unit clad in charred timber that was designed to replicate the appearance of the former agricultural barns that used to occupy the same location.
