Long Stone Manor – Care UK

Hotel & Accommodation
“We’re delighted with the completion of Long Stone Manor, which marks an exciting milestone in our commitment to delivering high-quality care for the community in Wilmslow. “Russell WBHO has done an exceptional job in constructing the new home, which has been thoughtfully designed and finished to an incredibly high standard. We’re looking forward to welcoming the first residents over the coming months and to our Grand Launch event when we’ll officially mark the home as open and invite the local community to celebrate with us and see what life is like at Long Stone Manor.” Dave Ankers, Regional Director for Care UK

Facts

60-bedroom care home in Wilmslow, Cheshire

1.2 acre plot in Manchester Road

Long Stone Manor features a ground-floor cinema, hair salon, bar and café. Four individual suites, each comprising several bedrooms and a lounge for residents, span the rest of the two-storey building

  • Project Status:
  • Location: Wilsmlow, Cheshire
  • Client: Care UK
  • Contract: JCT Design & Build 2016

Externally, Russell WBHO has also landscaped outdoor space, incorporating a courtyard and seating area.

Constructed on a constrained site on a main road within a residential area, the project presented many logistical challenges. The working area was landlocked on three sides and surrounded by protected trees, which restricted the use of equipment such as forklifts on the ground.

Martin Round, Project Director at Russell WBHO, said “We’re pleased to hand over our first development for Care UK on time and budget. Long Stone Manor is an impressive building inside and out showcasing how well-designed spaces can create a community feel while ensuring the highest standards of care.

“The development’s design and location created several challenges which were overcome thanks to effective sequencing and the use of a tower crane to distribute materials around the site.”

Designed by KWL Architects, the home is Care UK’s 10th in Cheshire. Designed to enable residents to live active and fulfilled lives, it will provide full time residential and specialist dementia care, as well as short-term respite care. A total of 65 jobs have been created.

To enhance community engagement, children from nearby Lacey Green Primary Academy named the suites and created artwork for the hoardings.
