Borough Yards Wins Award for Excellence in Brickwork.

We are delighted to announce that the Borough Yards development has been honoured with the highest recognition in the brickwork category at The Worshipful Company of Tylers and Bricklayers’ Triennial Awards in London. This prestigious accolade celebrates outstanding achievement in bricklaying, and we couldn’t be prouder of the entire team whose vision and skill brought this project to life.

SPPARC Architects led the design by skilfully weaving the site’s historic character into a contemporary urban setting by reinstating the medieval street pattern and working with 8,500m² of Victorian Railway Arches, the project needed a brick that could marry the old and the new. NR Taylor, in collaboration with Traditional Brick and Stone (TBS), found the perfect solution by developing the bespoke Borough Blend brick, specifically designed to meet the complex demands of the project and bring the architectural vision to life.

This award underscores how thoughtful design, meticulous material selection, and expert craftsmanship can transform urban spaces. We look forward to seeing the Borough Blend brick used on many future heritage-sensitive regeneration schemes. To explore more projects featuring our this stunning brick please visit the brick page.
