This project involved the refurbishment of a dilapidated 14th-century brewhouse in central Monmouth, situated within a conservation zone. As a listed building, the renovation will restore the timber frame while preserving its historical significance. The building was upgraded to meet the Passivhaus low-energy building standard, ensuring it is energy-efficient, sustainable, and future-proof for generations to come. Circle Architecture converted the extant planning permission and LBC which previously showed the building separated into two houses without energy efficiency criteria and converted it into a single unit which is designed to only consume circa 30kWh/m2a for heating and hot water making it pass the Passivhaus Low Energy Building Standard or PHI LEB.
