ISG has been awarded a contract for the construction of a new £3.5m "highly sustainable" facility at King's College London's (KCL) Honor Oak Park sports ground.

The BREEAM Excellent-rated development has been designed by Loates-Taylor Shannon Architects and Designers and incorporates a two-storey brick and block work building.

On the ground floor of the centre will be 10 changing rooms to be used by KCL's hockey, rugby and football teams, as well as by visiting teams from other universities.

Function rooms will also be included among the ground floor facilities, while the first floor is to feature a viewing gallery with an open plan design to allow 360-degree views.

The building is located adjacent to one of two artificial pitches installed in the first phase of redevelopment at the sports ground, while the site also extends across a former Roman road.

Stuart Deverill, ISG managing director-London, said: "The project reflects King's College London's core focus on quality and environmental sustainability, and similar to all of the institution's recent developments, the scheme is targeting an ambitious BREEAM rating."
