Florence Welch has received approval to restore the historical Beckington Abbey, reuniting four ancient structures into a single home. While she aims for an extensive architectural renovation, archaeologists warn of potential human remains and artifacts resting beneath the grounds. The £1.9 million undertaking focuses on historical restoration, including removing modern additions and reinstating original features, balancing a blend of ambitious design with respect for the site's medieval past. Her team emphasizes the intent to unify and safeguard this historic property.
"The project also includes minor demolition works in the garden, removing dividing walls, sheds and concrete steps added in the 20th century."
