Cambridge Canoe Club ๐ถ Project throwback โจ
Earlier this year, we completed this bespoke steel storage building for Cambridge Canoe Club, giving the growing club much-needed space for around 200โ220 boats.
The club had outgrown its existing storage and had originally considered shipping containers. Instead, they opted for a purpose-designed steel building that offered a much more practical, long-term solution โ and looked far better in its riverside setting.
The building was designed with the unique location in mind, including:
โ๏ธ Black timber cladding to complement the existing clubhouse
โ๏ธ A terracotta roof
โ๏ธ Flood-resilient foundations and drainage
โ๏ธ Easy-access concrete ramp
โ๏ธ Generous storage capacity for future growth
Itโs a great example of how a steel building can provide practical, attractive and long-lasting space for sports clubs - whether you need boat storage, equipment storage, changing facilities or additional club space.
