The Residence Lancaster Moor

Lancaster Moor An icon on the Lancaster skyline, this former mental asylum finally closed to patients in 2000. Comprising of 16 hectares dominated by the main grade II listed Annexe building and the smaller Campbell House, the site has languished for several years on the English Heritage ‘Buildings at Risk’ register. Working closely with the HCA as landowner, P J Livesey have agreed an ingenious approach to save the listed buildings with enabling new build development built by our partner Story Homes, in total creating 400 new homes. Enabling works to stableise both buildings commenced in November 2012. Contracts were exchanged in March 2013 for the redevelopment, and a planning application has already been submitted for Campbell House as the first phase.
