Grade II-listed buildings get ‘much-needed’ £1.5 m refurb

Grade II-listed buildings at Central Manchester University Hospital are being restored to their former glory in a £1.5 m refurbishment by Novus Property Solutions.

The buildings, located in the heart of Manchester’s Knowledge Quarter, form part of Europe’s largest clinical academic campus, and the Central Manchester University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has appointed Novus on a measured term contract to deliver a comprehensive programme of upgrades.

As well as refurbishing the buildings themselves, a team of five Novus operatives are working with a large number of sub-contractors to deliver groundwork and road alterations, as well as general repairs. The works will significantly improve the accessibility of the buildings, with ramps and moulded railings being included in the rebuilding of a Grade II-listed wall. One early on-site
challenge was the relocation of two flammable gas stores, which was achieved using a 100-tonne crane in the early hours of the morning.
