Upton Park Heritage Wall Regeneration

The Homes and Communities Agency wish to appoint a contractor to undertake the reconstruction and remedial work to an existing heritage wall located in Upton, Northampton.

The construction of the wall shall be in line with Historic England regeneration expectations as well as being comparable to recent rebuilt sections of the wall. General works will include: • Assessment of current state of wall/materials • Procurement of materials • Re-build of the wall • Producing construction drawings • Producing method statements • Producing material submittal (inclusive of bond patterns for approval) • Provide a test panel for approval The contractor will also be responsible for maintaining the surrounding environment to the existing standard and repairing any damages made due to the transportation of construction materials/plant.
