Blacksmiths Arms, East-the-Water, Bideford

The Blacksmiths was a pub refurbishment with a different. Our client Mr Robert Braddick wanted this public house to be totally renovated at the same time, so this 2 story building had a major refit.

Starting with a total gut out including all floors, the roof and some of the structural supporting columns, also with the added fact that the building was split on the first floor to allow for the entrance for the apartment that was in the roof. This meant considerable sound proofing and fire protection constructed between these areas.

Also a major decked area constructed for a rear beer garden on the first floor height, with steps leading to the Tarker trail (A disused railway line now a cycle track along the river Torridge and river Taw).

The pictures show form start to finish of the internal and external views points of the construction.
