Barwick £2.95m Kent hospice win


Contractor RJ Barwick of Dover has won a £2.95 million, 60-week contract to build a new hospice for Pilgrims Hospice Ltd at Willesborough, near Ashford in Kent.

The hospice will cater for 22 in-patients as well as having a large day centre. All the accommodation has been designed by architect Leonard Barlow Associates to face south.

The building is of traditional construction with brick and block cavity walls, concrete floors, and clay tiled pitched roofs.

The building is a mix of one and two storeys with the main entrance, administration area, chapel, staff rooms and kitchens located in a single storey extension.

The scheme, which is due for completion by October 2000, will be project managed by McComb Partnership.
