Public Realm
The courtyard garden is proposed to be landscaped, incorporating an outdoor ‘maker’s’ area, outdoor seating for all users, as well as green spaces where the wider Shandon community may gather. The public realm along Church Street and Exchange Street is proposed to form part of the project, and important element in re-linking the Butter Market with the Weighmaster’s House. The northern wall of the Butter Exchange, a modern concrete reconstruction of the wall lost to the fire, is proposed to be softened with seating, green areas and the new canopy.
