As part of their Stirling Prize coverage, the BBC and the Architects’ Journal have made short films of each shortlisted building. In the films, they speak to the clients and users of the building in order to understand the impact the building has on the people who use it.

We have received planning approval and Listed Building Consent for the restoration and extension to Auckland Castle in Co. Durham. The project involves repairs and alterations to the existing listed buildings, a new museum extension and a visitor reception building facing the town square. Given the high sensitivity of this unique site, the planning process took almost one year, involving a very constructive dialogue with English Heritage and Durham County Council. The designs had overwhelming support from local people.
