	Restoration and Refurbishment of The Almshouses, Arksey An award winning project where we demonstrated our sensitive approach to restoration and conservation, working closely with the local authority and housing association to deliver a usable building whilst preserving and enhancing the historic content and features of the building.
	New Stand at Castle Park, Armthorpe A project that finally sees steelwork and precast terracing delivered and erected on site following months of hard work from the whole design team. Due to be complete by the end of 2008 we continue our successful relationship and partnering approach with RJ Cadman Construction Ltd to turn the client’s aspirations into solid form.
	8-10 High Street, Doncaster A project located in the heart of Doncaster Town Centre. The brief was to remove existing 1960's buildings on the frontage and an old disused cinema to the rear, to create 18 000 sq ft of floor space for retail use. A challenging project was handled and co-ordinated professionally by BLD as an integral part of the design team to overcome various obstacles throughout the construction process. Due to the historical location of the site Archaeologists were required on site. Interesting items were discovered ranging from roman pots, roman jewellery, roman coins, stone wells and even 2 skeletons buried together!!! The new build consisted of a steel frame flat roof building to create the retail space. However, we had to work closely with the Local Authority Conservation Officers to create a Georgian frontage which faced onto High Street. A well detailed and conscientious approach resulted in a successful project both in terms of achieving the clients brief and a pleasing frontage which now enhances the street scene. Highly commended by the Local Authority for its sympathetic approach.
	SHOP FRONTS BLD have been commissioned to secure Planning consents for new shop fronts in sensitive High Street locations from Mansfield to York. We specialise in one off bespoke frontages especially within Conservation areas.
	Affordable Homes 34 Mixed tenure homes on Almond Place, Wath-on-Dearne, Rotherham Client Johnnie Johnson Housing Trust Builder Southdale Homes The Project Just finished on the 12th November 2008. The excellent rated Eco Homes at Rotherham were opened to tenants and purchasers alike. The site includes photovoltaic and solar panels and will help to bridge the fuel poverty gap for the owners and tenants into the future.
	Bigby Green The redevelopment of Home Farm, Bigby, North Lincolnshire consists of 26 dwellings which included the formation of a village green at the heart of the development. The development is now coming to completion having been constructed mostly on demand over the last 5 years.
	Retail - Sheffield The redevelopment of this prime location on the cities peace gardens assisted with regeneration of the location. The location was quickly let at completion to high street names.
	Social Housing - Rotherham The conversion of a long redundant D.H.S offices to residential in the heart of Rotherham helped to regenerate the area. The development consisted of 25 apartments and were fully let within a short period following completion.
	Car Showroom - Chesterfield The Gordon Lamb dealership commissioned BLD to design the dual showroom for Renault and Nissan. The location has proved very successful and has led to BLD being commissioned to design other dealerships for Toyota, Skoda and Gordon lamb head office.
	Special Needs Housing This innovative village community developed for the Hesley Group, provides a range of individual and small scale homes for adults with challenging behaviours resulting from autism or severe learning difficulties. The village centre providing shops, cafe, leisure facilities and vocational activities is a subtle blend of new buildings and conversion projects.
	The De Mulder Lloyd Stand Building LinkDesign are delighted to be involved with this project to build a two floor stand covering almost the entire length of the field. The new seating was first used for the match on 22nd November 2008.
