Elevation across harbour towards main facade. UTC Newhaven, Newhaven, United Kingdom. Architect: HKS Architects Limited, 2016.
The new University Technical College (UTC) for up to 600, 14-19 year olds has recently opened and is located within the historic setting of two existing listed buildings on the Railway Quays site in the heart of Newhaven, East Sussex. The intention is to develop engineers for the future who have specialist skills and the environmental awareness needed to support the increasing role of renewable and marine technologies, such as wind farms and tidal energy generators. The funded area was for approximately 4,870sqm of teaching accommodation and had to be housed within two existing Listed buildings along with a new build element, located on the bank of the River Ouse. The largest building was previously a Marine Workshop built in 1882 and contained two large gantry cranes. The Carpenter’s Workshop sits to the south of the Marine Workshop and was built 1885. Both buildings historically serviced the Brighton and South Coast Railway cross channel packet ships.
