Royal Academy

Restore London undertook various elements of work to the listed fabric both internally and externally. The principal task was the careful removal of vaulted brick arches in the basement to allow for the construction of a new lift aperture.

Restore London also rebuilt a new concrete structure along with various restoration works to the timber and stonework in the gallery above as well as carrying out important roofing and structural works externally.
