Planning permission granted for the extension and renovation of a traditional Cotswold cottage in Amberley, near Nailsworth, Stroud. The design uncovers the original Cotswold stone cottage, revealed in historical photos, and extends to provide a four bedroom property and new kitchen dining space. Natural stone, lime render and zinc combine in a design which carefully balances old and new, restoring the original cottage, while adding a sympathetic new contemporary extension.
