Spence
House Wins Award
1 March 2002
THE SPENCE HOUSE has been awarded the RIBA South's Chairman's Award.
It was also shortlisted for an RIBA Award for Architecture in 2001.
Robert Franklin, the then Chairman said, "A modest holiday retreat
built for his own use by Sir Basil Spence in 1961, now listed grade
II, whose present owner is a most appreciative and discerning admirer
of Spence and who approached the necessary enlargement of the house
with great care. The result is a deeply involved patronage of subtle
improvement and new work that in lesser hands could have been a disaster."
