Salmond Reed Architects were the architectural heritage consultants for the seismic upgrade and full restoration of St Barnabas and the Chapel of Our Glorified Lord at Diocesan School for Girls, completed in September 2025. Working in close collaboration with Creative ARCH design architects and Fraser Thomas Engineers, to achieve 100% of the New Building Standard (NBS), alongside a comprehensive restoration of both chapels. The project employed traditional conservation techniques and materials to preserve the historic character of these significant heritage buildings.
Salmond Reed Architects prepared an initial condition assessment report in 2008, returning to the site in 2013 to reassess the failing building condition. Further detailed documentation for much needed repairs and maintenance followed and remedial work to cladding, buttresses, windows and the tower and bell turret was completed in 2015.
