Wardens’ accommodation unit on Scolt Head Island.

Scolt Head Island is on the UK North Norfolk Coast at Brancaster.

The building is timber frame and uses Panelvent as a sheathing board and is clad in Western Red Cedar.

The insulation is a mixture of Warmcel and Thermafleece.

The island has no mains services: photo voltaic panels provide all the electrical requirement for the building and rainwater is harvested from a ‘brown’ roof.

In 2005 the building won a CPRE Norfolk (Campaign to Protect Rural England) Award.
