MEETING
HOUSE

The Meeting House is located near the Pantiles,
a Georgian colonnade, in the picturesque
conservation town of Royal Tunbridge Wells in Kent.
Originally built as a chapel in the 18th century,
the historic building has since been converted
into luxury office space.

Lesters Building Contractors were chosen to
replace the original windows and doors due to
their significant experience of working on complex
conservation projects.

Bereco were able to supply bespoke floor to ceiling
feature windows with arched head detail and black
painted glazing to replicate the original design.
The bespoke nature of Bereco products meant
the windows could be individually designed to
accommodate varying opening sizes.

Lesters Building Contractors have worked with
Bereco for over 10 years and continue to be
impressed with the versatility and quality that the
product range can offer. Due to the complexity and
architectural sensitivity of this project, Glenn Lester
had no hesitation in choosing Bereco to supply
windows and doors from the Traditional Range.

It was essential that the replacement timber
windows and doors remained sympathetic with
the historic structure of the building and were
in-keeping with the surrounding conservation area.

The windows had to be of a traditional appearance
to replicate the existing feature windows whilst
offering 21st century, high performance features to
improve energy efficiency and reduce heat loss.
