The brief

Devon Wildlife Trust bought a fire-damaged, listed mill in the heart of Exeter. Not many offices have a leat running through them, with stream habitats opened up and landscaped with ponds and wet areas, and few double as a fully working mill.

Working with a listed building

As a listed heritage building, Cricklepitt Mill was a unique challenge for a headquarters project, and a fascinating backdrop for a place to work. With the mill’s machinery restored, the main milling room doubles as a breakout area and library.

The mill has high ceilings and exposed beams, and the air conditioning units were left exposed as a modern feature that complements the building’s heritage, much like the ultra-modern extension.
