ABOUT TAPTON COURT

THE FORMER TAPTON HALL

Tapton Court is a historic building in the desirable suburb of Ranmoor to the west of Sheffield city centre. Built in 1868 for one of Sheffield’s many steel magnates it is an imposing stone villa standing in 3.5 acres of mature walled grounds.

We will be bringing it back to the majesty of its heyday, preserving many of its original features such as the ornate staircase and arched windows and converting the space to create 14 mansion apartments within its splendid walls.

The original stable block and Gate House lodge will also be converted to create two unique individual properties.

A newer annexe, built to provide accommodation for nurses at the nearby hospital and most recently used by Sheffield University as halls of residence, is being retained and will be converted to provide 18 luxury 2, 3 & 4 bedroom apartments.

Four sympathetically designed new family homes will also be built within the grounds while retaining the estate’s historic terraced wall.

Ranmoor has long been an affluent area with many grand properties built for the city’s great industrialists. It also has a Grade II listed church, St Paul’s, the tower and spire of which date back to 1879.

ABOUT GREEN WALK, STANDISH

THE FORMER STANDISH HOSPITAL

Standish hospital closed in 2004 and is now owned by the Homes and Communities Agency. This 32-acre site includes a number of heritage buildings.

Our draft proposals include the conversion of the Grade II listed Standish House and stable block together with two Art Deco style ward buildings and the gate lodge on Horsemarling Lane. We are also proposing to save the site’s distinctive hydrotherapy pool, which was previously considered for demolition.

The work would be supported by ‘enabling development’ of new build homes designed specifically for the location. This would go hand-in-hand with extensive improvements to the grounds, including new footpaths and enhanced green spaces across the site.

Under the proposed plans the Grade II listed Standish House would be converted into 16 apartments; the stable block into five houses; and both ward buildings would be divided vertically to create a total of 26 distinctive homes. The 1970’s Hydrotherpy Unit would be divided into two unique properties and the estates Lodge House would be restored as a single dwelling.
