Victoria Hall is an 1867 Grade II* listed Hall, in the heart of Saltaire. Rance Booth Smith have been carrying out work for the managing agents Shipley College since 1993, and have been appointed to carry out numerous projects to the hall over the years including:

Refurbishment Works 

Rance Booth Smith successfully completed an extensive programme of refurbishment and modernisation of Victoria Hall for The Salt Foundation and its managing agents, Shipley College.  The project involved the internal and external redecoration of the building improving the disabled entrance to the hall; the ground floor lobby was reconfigured by removing the existing bar and constructing a new reception counter, manager’s office, disabled toilet facility and re-positioned lift entrance. 

Centre of Excellence

We were commissioned to design a new state-of-the-art teaching facility located within the former library room. Careful design and liaison with the local authority conservation team was required to retain the historical elements of the space, but at the same time provide a multi-functional teaching facility for the college, which allowed different uses, accommodated in an essentially open plan space.
