It’s incredible to think that a building with origins at the time of Genghis Khan and Marco Polo is not only still standing, but flourishing, but that’s exactly the case for Bishopthorpe Palace.
Today, it has multiple functions – as working offices, meeting rooms, worship areas and living quarters. In addition to its role as the Archbishop of York’s home and office of the Northern Province of the CoE, the palace and its grounds are also used for charity open days, retreats, evening receptions, and village fetes.
Even without the cultural and historical significance, the architecture alone warrants a Grade I Listed status, and naturally the process of improving the functionality and thermal performance of the building required careful consideration.
When award-winning contractors, Simpson, looked at secondary glazing, they were already aware of the work carried out by Granada in York on behalf of Bootham School. After careful consideration, the stunning stately home was fitted with our balanced vertical sliding sash windows in two phases to dramatically enhance both thermal and acoustic performance.
