Great Burgh, Beecham Smith Kline

In September 1992 SmithKline Beecham Pharmaceuticals issued a brief for the design of a research and development complex in Great Burgh in Epsom, Surrey. The brief was to provide a new headquarters building incorporating efficient flexible space as a comfortable working environment for non-laboratory functions, with servicing capacity to cope with increased IT use in the future. The programme required project completion by December 1994. In January 1993 a development strategy for the complex was agreed with Terry Farrell and Company and instructions were given to proceed with the design. Key features of the design included a restablishment of entranceways, full historic building frontage and covered pedestrian walkways. These produced an aesthtically pleasing conference environment space.

The focus of the design was the Neo/Georgian Great Burgh House, initially built in 1912/1913. The site was a composite of a large variety of buildings including laboratories, administration offices, stores and leisure facilities, developed over a period of time and in a piecemeal manner. The buildings were set within substantial areas of established landscaped grounds and trees, part of which was designated and Urban Open Land Area by the Local Planning Authority.
