Historic St. George Hotel in Harrogate
The Harrogate Inn, which was previously the St George Hotel, has had a large new bar-restaurant with a brand new entrance overlooking, and with access to, Crescent Gardens.
The historic building has been a hive of activity on recent weeks as it evolves from being a 90-bed hotel to a 96-bed hotel with huge changes on the ground floor throughout.
Silverstone Building Consultancy project managed the renovation of the 96-bed hotel which included moving the main entrance to a more prominent position on the property and adding grand, statement, stone steps leading up to it.
The refurbishment has created two new bars and restaurants, which feature outdoor drinking and dining areas and six new, executive bedroom suites on the ground floor. The roof and external elevations have been renewed and repaired, a new kitchen installed and much of the interior repainted.
Wakefield Former Market Hall
Wheatleys are soon to start the M&E contract Wakefield's former market hall as it is converted into a venue with restaurants, businesses and space for events.
Wakefield Exchange will cost £7.7m and it is being funded by the council and the government and is part of the City's regeneration scheme.
The hall was originally designed by architect Sir David Adjaye and was built in 2008, however market traders moved out in 2018.
Work to repurpose the building is due to begin in Spring 2023, with the Wakefield Exchange expected to open to the public in spring 2024.
Heaton Crematorium, Bradford
Work has started on site this week at the new £12m crematorium at Heaton in Bradford. Wheatleys are currently completing the detailed MEP design in house. The project is part of a wider upgrade and development programme that will upgrade or replace the district’s cremators, which are over 20 years’ old and operating well-beyond the manufacturers stated working life. All of the existing crematoria buildings are over 100 years old with limited facilities and capacity.
The new build facility at Heaton will replace the outdated Nab Wood crematorium and is being constructed on vacant green land close to Northcliffe Golf Club. It will feature a main and ancillary ceremony hall, crematory and ancillary equipment, a committal room, plant and administration facilities, along with a garden of reflection.
It has been designed in line with the Council’s Environmental and Sustainability Strategy and the National Standards of Emissions – energy will be captured and re-used within the building and the facility will include the latest mercury and nitrogen oxide removal technology.

HMP Prisons Cat “D” phase 1
We are delighted to have secured 2 orders worth over £6M for new build prisons on the MoJ frame work agreement
Each existing site will be provided with 2 accommodation blocks with 120 cells together with a site wide upgrade to the infrastructure including LV, CCTV, CIS, Fibre, Fire, Data etc.
Both sites are due to start with modular construction in December 2021, then onsite works finishing December 2022.
Both accommodation blocks on each site will be serviced by Mitsubishi Ecodan ASHP, located in the service roof space.
Bradford Coroners Courts
MEP works are well underway on this 5 storey site, after Wheatleys secured this prestigious project with R N Woolers
The new facility will have three main courts, one on each of the upper level floors, including one that is designed for juries.
This means that, unlike the existing court, multiple inquests can be held at one time.
It also provides better facilities for juries. If a jury trial is held at the current coroner’s court, jury members have to pass through security in the magistrate’s court, and are then accompanied between the entrance and jury room to ensure they are suitably sequestered from the Coroner.
The new facility will have a layout that will allow the jury to remain separate from the public, press and families.
ASHP throughout Yorkshire and beyond
We were approached by a new client to assist in the delivery of a decarbonisation of public building schemes for Leeds City Council. The first phase of the works, coming to a completion in early 2022, has seen us upgrade and modify 23 plantrooms around the city, across a range of sites including leisure centres, schools, care facilities and other public buildings.
Each installation is unique, but generally consists of the removal and replacement of existing gas fired plant, controls upgrades, buffer tank and ASHP installations to create “hybrid” systems optimised to maximise the potential of the renewable technology. Every scheme is complete with a full 3D model, which has helped with spatial planning as can be seen below:
We have built a strong relationship with our new client, formed on the back of delivery of each and every scheme, on time, on budget and surpassing the expected standards of our client and in turn Leeds City Council. We are actively negotiating a continuance of the scheme beyond March 2022, helping us to save the planet one plantroom at a time.

Allerton Waste Recycling Project - Vinci Construction
We were approached by Vinci Construction to visit site with their project manager to help them develop a scheme to introduce some fresh air ventilation into a visitor viewing gallery. The site is a household waste recycling centre/Energy From Waste project and as such the visitor viewing gallery was virtually unusable due to foul odour.
We designed a mechanical supply and extract system to serve the gallery, complete with three stage filtration, bag and panel filters to remove air borne dust particles and carbon filters to remove odours from the supply air. Along with the mechanical ventilation system we had to install complete new three phase distribution cabling to serve a dedicated distribution board for the new installation. The works involved working at height in an active process facility, which presented its own challenges, but through successfully implementing strict H&S protocol and thanks to the dedication of the Wheatley M&E site team, we were able to complete the project on time, on budget and to the exacting standards of both Vinci Construction and Amey, the end user.
Thanks to Wheatleys efforts throughout the project, a new relationship has been formed with Vinci Construction and we are now in talks with them on a number of upcoming, prestigious projects.

Grantley Hall, Ripon
Wheatley M & E Services is very proud to have delivered the M&E services for this high profile project involving the full refurbishment of an existing Grade II listed hall and a new build, state of the art spa and wellness retreat.
The project involved transforming the historic hall into a luxury ‘Relais Chateaux’ hotel, offering exquisite rooms and suites and an extensive and diverse range of dining options.
The linked new build spa consists of an 18 meter indoor swimming pool, an indoor to outdoor vitality pool, sauna, steam room, snow room, varied treatment rooms, dining and relaxation areas and a pioneering Elite executive gym and strength room.
The project programme commenced whilst detailed design was in it’s infancy, and the design continued in parallel with construction. Such practice required intimate and closely controlled communication to allow swift design development. This innovative solution allowed the hotel to trade twelve months earlier.
The Grantley site was registered under the Considerate Constructors Scheme (CSC) and achieved a ‘Beyond Compliance’ status.
