Library and it will soon be ready to welcome visitors The fit out of the space will take place over the coming weeks It will be ready to welcome residents for the much-anticipated launch in February A new public garden, outdoor learning and activity space will further enhance the library offer Construction work to replace the old library commenced in October 2022 The previous facility was in need of repair Temporary library facilities have been provided at Bishops Hill Adult Community Learning Centre in Poplar Drive ahead of the new library opening to the public Deputy Leader and Cabinet Member for the Communities She said: “It’s great that the new Shenfield Library will be opening soon and I am looking forward to seeing families enjoy the top notch facilities and open outdoor space.” added: “It’s wonderful to see the new library building finished and I look forward to welcoming residents at the official launch next month.” Councillor Lee Scott, Cabinet Member for Housing, Planning and Regeneration, said: “I am delighted that Essex Housing has redeveloped this site to provide high quality housing and a new and improved library “I’d like to thank residents again for their patience while the work is completed I look forward to welcoming them when the library officially opens.” The new library is the first in Essex to use Air Source Heat Pumps The development also includes mechanical ventilation with heat recovery Electric vehicle charging points for residents add to the development’s sustainable credentials At the time of planning submission, the combined residential, library and commercial elements achieved a 54 per cent carbon emission saving This is over and above building regulations This new development is part of an exciting programme of more than 1,000 new homes Essex Housing will deliver in the next five years Around half of these are specialist or affordable housing, to help older people and people with disabilities live independently

on Brentwood High Street Morrisons has been described as “appalling” after they close a local shop in Shenfield which also means losing the last remaining local Post Office The Morrison’s Daily store next to Shenfield station The supermarket chain said the shop was not making enough money to break even This meant the closure of the Shenfield Broadway Post Office but efforts are being made to find a new location within Shenfield This could be in the other Morrisons store on Hutton Road or elsewhere the decision has sparked concerns that it will affect businesses and residents Brentwood borough Councillor David Worsfold (Lib Dem Shenfield)- who represents the area- said: “The news that Shenfield has lost its Post Office with the closure of Morrisons is a significant blow to residents and businesses in the town “To take the Post Office down with them Morrison's is appalling "People will have to travel either to Brentwood or there is a small post office on Woodlands Road in Hutton "That's incredibly inconvenient for people especially those who are reliant on public transport or those who aren't particularly mobile Cllr Worsfold- who's lived in the town for almost 30 years- added that it'll 'negatively impact local business' after the last remaining banks (Barclay's) closed a few years ago we lost our last bank when Barclays pulled out reneging on the ‘last bank standing’ deal among the major banks they pointed across the road to the Post Office saying that would meet the needs of residents and businesses "It means local businesses no longer have anywhere they can deposit cash in the town." which moved to WH Smith when the Baytree Centre was refurbished is facing some change as Modella Capital has acquired WH Smith’s High Street business Brentwood MP Alex Burghurt said: “Modella is very enthusiastic about having Post Offices in their stores as they bring footfall into those shops and generate significant revenues so is in talks with Post Office Limited about how Post office services can remain in Brentwood High Street “Post Office Limited has assured me it will continue to adhere to its Access Criteria set by HM Government and meet its requirement to maintain 11,500 branches across the UK "I will keep a close eye on what happens across the constituency and please let me know if you have any concerns.” A spokesperson for Morrisons said: “We are disappointed to be in a position where closure is necessary and will work hard to mitigate the impact of this on colleagues "Our priority now is to support colleagues who have been placed at risk of redundancy and ensure that as many as possible are offered alternative employment at a nearby Morrisons Daily store or Morrisons supermarket."

It seems too quiet at Scott Brownrigg’s Shinfield Studios near Reading, but that’s just what these mega film stages need Aside from the background white noise of M4 traffic from the north, there’s an almost eerie silence at Shinfield Studios outside Reading. This quietude is especially strange since the new film and TV complex is huge – the UK’s largest newbuild.  But first to the context. Domestic film-making history is a long one, starting with Ealing Studios in 1902 and burgeoning with Shepperton and Pinewood in the 1930s – and it’s ongoing. Government tax credits make the industry highly competitive internationally, and with the cultural shift from traditional movie studios and cinemas to new generators of online film and TV content like Netflix, Disney+ and Apple TV, global appetite for entertainment is growing exponentially. What was striking in the planning process was the level of support for the proposal On the south side, and to animate the campus, are the studios’ admin offices, with their bold brises-soleil, at the entrance of the site. Their two wings flank a large portico that leads to the stages beyond, its deep inner face lined in bright yellow steel panels, which Lebidineuse concedes would have been more Hollywood if the D&B contract had not seen the proposed high-resolution LED screens value-engineered out. Ghostbusters was filmed here while 500 people were busy constructing stages round it No noise problems from Shinfield’s blockbuster neighbour then; just something huge and quiet in the distance, like Norma Desmond’s memories of her silent films in ‘Sunset Boulevard’. ‘You used to be big,’ says the movie’s cunning but ultimately doomed screenwriter on first meeting her. ‘I AM big,’ the spurned star retorts. ‘It’s the pictures that got small.’ Latest articlesRIBAJ Spec: Architecture for Housing and Residential Development Webinar20 May 2025SpecRIBAJ Spec: Architecture for Housing and Residential Development Webinar Baillie Baillie Architects used contemporary techniques while drawing inspiration from local traditions What does neuroscience tell us about what to promote or avoid in facade design Sign up to receive regular briefings, updates and our weekly newsletter – all designed to bring you the best stories from RIBAJ.com Sign up to receive regular briefings, updates and our weekly newsletter – all designed to bring you the best stories from RIBAJ.com updates and our weekly newsletter – all designed to bring you the best stories from RIBAJ.com The country market might be calming down before Christmas but this house will have people running up that hill to take a look There has long been a mill on the site of Shenfield Mill near Theale six miles from Pangbourne and nine miles from Reading In medieval times it was a corn mill and fulling mill; in the 19th century it became a paper mill whose oldest parts date from 1800 — and whose youngest elements are barely old enough to shave Strutt & Parker were also the agents back in 1979 before if became the home of an up and coming singer called Kate Bush her recording studio and her rehearsal studio realised a lifetime dream of owning a house by a river when bought the singer’s mill house and outbuildings between the Kennet and Avon Canal and the River Kennet as he stood on the bridge and watched barbel spawning on the gravel below Working with engineering consultants Renewables First the Taylors installed a 10ft-diameter Archimedes screw generates enough power to cover the energy needs of the entire property as well as exporting a significant surplus back to the grid they had to remove an old concrete fish pass which was replaced by a 1,200ft natural pass that enables fish to travel up and down the river far more easily than before Shenfield Mill is now home to an excellent fishery kestrels nesting in the garden and otters occasionally feeding in the river Free electricity and extra wildlife is very much in the win-win bracket and it means you can have as many under-unit lights as you want in the kitchen without feeling bad about the carbon footprint the couple invested heavily in reinstating the eroding river banks around the old mill ruins which enabled water to flow once more through the ruins and the River Kennet to flow more smoothly through the grounds the brickwork of which has been carefully preserved and restored create a walled garden alongside the mill leat and a striking 75ft steel-and-tile bridge leads across the water from the house into two acres of semi-formal gardens The renovation of the mill house itself was a four-year-long labour of love which saw the building taken back to its original brick The exacting work was carried out by conservation specialists Stonewood Builders of Castle Combe who undertook the refurbishment of the main house and housekeeper’s cottage They also managed the conversion of the recording studio to guest accommodation Elsewhere is an extension incorporating a triple garage kitchen and utility area joined to the main house by a glazed link;
