The Mill, Waterside Village, Loughborough

Project Overview

The Mill has been designed not just for living in but for working and playing in too. There is a communal workspace and a gym, plus canal side gardens and moorings.

The goal was to preserve the existing fabric of the building whilst creating a contemporary living space.

The 130-year-old structure could not bear the weight of the additional floors added, so a fusion frame was added.

Beautiful brick work, bullnose brick detailing and decorative stops, high ceilings, original iron, oak and bow string beams, and cast iron columns with original maker’s plates were revealed and retained.
