About This Live Project

Foxholes is a small village on the busy B1249 mid-way between Driffield and Scarborough in the Yorkshire Wolds. It has a semi-derelict village hall and no funds to renovate it. Their best option appears to be to sell off part or all of the existing site for development and build a new hall elsewhere, though renovation of the existing hall may be possible if funding becomes available.

The purpose of this project is to prepare a hard-nosed assessment of the short- and longterm Sustainability potential of the four options to assist decision-making and fundraising.
This is the kind of assessment that will become increasingly important for architects on all projects as every form of energy
becomes scarce and expensive.

Who's Who?













So this is our starting place. Very little knowledge of the functioning of the village, the people, the requirements or the politics within the community.

Little interaction occurrs between the villagers and the hall due to its decreasing usefulness in its current state and we are well and truely outside the community - As should be in order to perform the required task, certainly at the initial stages of the project.
