Overview
Delivering a Childcare Facility Within a Heritage-Listed Context
The Cheltenham Early Education Centre Tallowwood Place involved the construction of a new 60-place early learning facility located at 179 Beecroft Road, Cheltenham.
The development includes a basement plant room and storage areas, on-grade open-air car parking with 13 spaces, and a purpose-built childcare centre with separate rooms for children aged 0–2 years, 2–3 years, and 3–5 years. The facility also incorporates external play areas, kitchen and administration spaces, amenities, and an upper-level multipurpose room with staff facilities.
The project was delivered within a heritage-listed former church site, requiring careful integration of new works within an existing heritage context.
Our Role
Building Services Delivery from Concept Through Construction
BSE provided electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, and fire protection services from concept design through to construction.
Outcomes
A Functional Learning Environment Within a Sensitive Heritage Setting
The completed childcare centre delivers a modern early learning environment while respecting and retaining the site’s heritage significance.
Careful coordination ensured clear separation between new construction and heritage elements, including consideration of sightlines and building form, resulting in a functional and well-integrated development that supports use by children and educators.
