A modern open-plan house with a stone wall overlooking a lawn

A glazed garden room behind a Georgian townhouse, held between a new stone wall and the old one.

The clients wanted space to cook and eat together without turning their back on the garden. Planning wanted the old house to stay legible.

The answer was a single long room set between two walls: the original rubble-stone boundary, repaired and repointed, and a new wall of the same stone laid in thin courses. Between them, a roof light runs the full length, so the room is lit from above and the garden is seen through a wall of glass.
