Sensitive renovation of a locally listed landmark into a woodland-connected neighbourhood in Bexleyheath.
Bursted Woods transforms the locally listed former Bexley Maternity Hospital and its grounds into a new residential neighbourhood of 117 homes. HTA’s design weaves together architecture and landscape to celebrate the site’s history and its rare location beside Bursted Woods Ancient Woodland. A mix of houses and apartment buildings responds to the surrounding streetscape, while new green links connect residents and visitors to the woodland and local wildlife corridors. The project balances heritage conservation with contemporary living, creating a place rooted in its context.
