Current projects Martello tower 28 rye harbour

Refurbishment of Martello tower in Rye Harbour East Sussex 2012

I have been appointed for the residential conversion of Martello tower 28 a listed/scheduled monument for building contractor owner Umesh Chhatralia. The project includes a surrounding moat and sloping battered moat walls, new first floor access to the tower, external refurbishment and major internal restoration. This defensive tower has no ground level window or access with only openings in the upper level. Internally there is a brick vaulted ceiling and central column to support the not present canon on the roof deck. It includes an existing stair to the roof through very wide sloping external walls and externally a huge amount of ivy!
