An Iconic London Pub
Located in North London, The Bull & Last has been a local institution for years. As Principal Contractor, Knowles delivered a new basement floor sitting at 190 sq/m to house the new state-of-the-art commercial kitchen, a new second floor, used for hotel bedrooms, and 2 new apartments located adjacent to the pub structure.
Fit-Out
Within Knowles’ package, alongside the shell & core works included the complete fit-out of the Bull & Last Pub, including the new addition of hotel rooms and apartments.
For the pub, a complete refit of the main ground floor bar, which featured dual dumb waiters, refurbishment of original wood floors, new windows, new panelling to all stairways and fit of the commercial kitchen, offices and pub WC’s. The hotel rooms were also finished to a high-specification, and included air conditioning.
Fit-out of the 2 new apartments included a rear terrace with planters and feature lighting, polished concrete floor, oak staircases throughout, glazed balustrades and solar panels and green roof with man safe system.
