Planning Proposal - Peterfiled Cottage Norflok
Petersfield Cottage is an existing thatched cottage on its own island on the Norfolk Broads.
Whilst the client wanted a contemporary building to replace the existing cottage we encouraged an aesthetic that would echo the local vernacular and sit comfortably as a waterside retreat.
The thatch roof was retained as was the weatherboard cladding but the cantilevered gable end was designed to bear semblance to the local boat houses. The decking encircled the whole building and joined the mainland via a foot bridge enabling access to the property even during flooding.
