DOUBLE GOLD FOR RURAL BUSINESSES ON BUILDING DESIGN

摘要

Several Teesdale and North East-based rural enterprise companies are celebrating this week after the Cross Lanes Organic Farm Shop at Barnard Castle, co Durham, and part-designed and built by S and A Fabrications, was named 'Building of the Year' at the first ever Farm and Agricultural Buildings awards. The building also scooped the prize for 'Best building aesthetics'. The awards were given by the Rural and Industrial Design and Buildings Association (RIDBA) at its National conference, and were presented by TV presenter Kate Humble at the Hilton Hotel, Bath. The objective of them was to "highlight the variety, diversity and sustainability of farm buildings", according to the organisation.
