Winton Chapel, University of Winchester

Originally built in 1880, Winton Chapel recently

celebrated it’s 135th anniversary. As part of the University

of Winchester campus, the chapel plays a key role in

University life and hosts a multitude of events including

music concerts and war memorial services.

Over the decades, the growth of the University campus

has encroached on the space around the existing

chapel. As part of Design Engine’s masterplan for the

University, the chapel has been extended and renovated

to respond to the ever-changing needs of the campus.

When approaching the interior aesthetic, Design Engine

wanted an ironmongery solution to complement the

existing oak structures whilst providing a modern form.

Allgood were ideally place to provide the exclusive Holt

range of oak door furniture. Crafted from hand selected

FSC accredited oak, the range enhances the warm,

natural feel of the chapel.

At the request of Design Engine Architects, Holt pull

handles were specified on the glass entry doors and

supplied throughout the building, perfectly augmenting

the interior.
