Retained elements and finishes of the pub were restored or
re-provided based on rigorous research. The black marble wall
at street level was restored, retaining this important element
of the original composition. Bookending the Earnshaw Street
elevation, the new embossed concrete walls blanket the
housing with a recollection of the structural façade of Centre
Point tower whilst also recalling the sculptural forms of the
original building. The approach to heritage was to incorporate
new into old without pastiche or discord.
