Oaten Hill

Oaten Hill is a scheme for the creation of a modern private dwelling within the conservation area of the medieval city of Canterbury.

The site has a small single-storey bungalow on it which was the basis of the proposed scheme.

The Architectural response here re-used the existing structure and the Arts & Crafts style the existing building had and proposes a modern house based on a modern day interpretation of the ‘Arts & Crafts Movement’.

Canterbury City’s Planning and Conservation officers agreed with the approach and approved the large new dwelling under delegated powers.
