Auckland Castle, Tower & Faith Museum
Named as RIBA’s North East Building of the Year for 2024, this impressive timber tower, located in the marketplace of the town of Bishop Auckland, is intended to create a focal point for the historic town and an entrance to its grade I-listed 13th Century castle.
Níall McLaughlin Architects chose Chaunceys to supply our exquisite prime grade oak Versailles panels with a bespoke light oak finish to create a welcoming and impressive space for visitors. The panels were supplied at the bespoke size of 597mm x 597mm to fit perfectly over the room’s raised access flooring.
Judges described the building, which was inspired by medieval siege towers, as “impressive and enticing”.
