JESUS COLLEGE COMPLETION
MAY 2017
We are delighted that our West Court development project for Jesus College Cambridge has achieved practical completion. All new and refurbished buildings have been handed over to the College and are in full use. West Court is home to the new Jesus College Intellectual Forum which, in conjunction with the Cambridge Refugee Resettlement Campaign and Cambridge City of Sanctuary, will host a seminar in the new Lecture Hall entitled “Acting locally and thinking globally: how can cities and regions respond to refugees and forced migrants?”. The event takes place on 21st June and free tickets are available from Eventbrite.
UK’S BEST MODERN CHURCH AWARD
NOVEMBER 2013
The Bishop Edward King Chapel was among the winners of the ‘The UK’s Best Modern Churches’ competition which celebrates the best churches built within the last 50 years, announced at a ceremony held at Lambeth Palace in London. The open competition was run by the National Churches Trust, in association with the Ecclesiastical Architects and Surveyors Association and the 20th Century Society.
Of the top ten selected winners, the Chapel for Ripon College was the most recent nomination, with eight of the ten built in the late 50s and early 60s. The scheme was described as “a treat to look at” and “architecturally elegant, with a lovely intimate reflective interior.”
