Situated in the east of the Island and within an area of high landscape value, this project involved the replacement of a near-derelict agricultural barn with a modern steel building designed to sit harmoniously within its rural surroundings.
GRQ was involved throughout every stage of this project, providing the support and technical information required to secure planning approval before overseeing the wider delivery programme. This included the demolition of the existing structure, completion of the groundworks, installation of the foundation raft slab and the supply and erection of the replacement building. Construction was delivered in collaboration with our approved partners EG Services, who carried out the site preparation, groundworks and erection of the steel structure.
The completed barn comprises a 15m x 18m dual-pitch steel structure with a 4m eaves height, finished in Juniper Green non-insulated cladding. Designed to provide a practical and durable agricultural storage solution, the new facility offers significantly improved functionality while remaining sympathetic to the character of the surrounding landscape. The project was successfully delivered from concept through to completion, and the customer is delighted with the finished result.

Build Phases
Planning & Groundworks
Working closely with the client, GRQ provided the support and technical information required to secure planning approval for the replacement building. Following approval, the existing barn was demolished and groundworks commenced, including preparation of the site and installation of the foundation raft.
Steel Frame Erection
Once the foundations were complete, the bespoke steel frame was supplied and erected on site. The dual-pitch structure was carefully installed to provide a robust and durable building suited to the operational requirements of the agricultural setting.
Cladding & Commissioning
The final phase included the installation of Juniper Green non-insulated cladding and completion of all finishing works. Following commissioning, the new barn was handed over, delivering a modern agricultural storage facility that complements its rural surroundings.
