Construction News Image
Ardmore has started work to build a new residential scheme in the heart of Covent Garden's Seven Dials Conservation Area in London.

The Parker House development will feature 40 new high-specification private apartments and three 'affordable' units by mid-2019.

Designed by architect Robert Partington & Partners, features include retaining the existing brick façade and levelling the remainder of the building to create a new basement and six-storey residential block, as well as new mews houses.
