Building renovation specialists William Birch & Sons has completed a £2.6 million water pumping station upgrade project in Hull.

The Grade II-listed Springhead facility in Willerby has been fully refurbished

Works included replacing the roof structure and sheeting, along with the rain water guttering and fall pipes, as well as the installation of a new slate roof.

The internal walls have been stripped back to the bare brickwork, the masonry has been re-pointed and brickwork has been replaced. New security doors and window screens have also been installed. Final road improvements were completed last month.

Michael Smith, Yorkshire Water Project Manager said: "We're very pleased with the results and this impressive building is now water tight, protected from the elements and secure for the next 20 years."
