Hill’s spectacular headquarters were crafted from two derelict historic buildings and a new glazed office wing, in a sensitive landscape setting of water meadows. The Power House and Water Tower were formerly part of the Royal Gunpowder Mills.
PTE provided a full service from concept to completion.
Not only is the new building itself an uplifting place in which to work, it has provided an inspiration to help the company grow and flourish.”

An extraordinary fusion of landscape, architecture and industrial archaeology”
