Middlesbrough Old Town Hall
Demolition & Temporary Works

Middlesbrough Old Town Hall

Middlesbrough 4 weeks

A landmark heritage project at Middlesbrough Old Town Hall. WSS carried out asbestos removal and full structural demolition while preserving the listed clock tower. Engineered temporary works and new supporting legs were installed so the tower remained standing as the surrounding building was safely brought down.

Key Challenges

  • Retaining and protecting the listed clock tower throughout demolition
  • Designing and installing temporary works and new supporting legs for the tower
  • Asbestos removal prior to structural demolition

The building was safely demolished while the landmark clock tower was retained intact on its new supporting legs.
