Howe Barracks

Howe Barracks is part of the Royal Parade development located at Legacy Park in Canterbury, Kent. This project consists of up to 500 dwellings incorporating a variety of community facilities. These include the refurbishment of 3 No. post WWII structures situated on an old MOD Army Barracks.

The former barracks buildings consist of the Gymnasium and former Chapel/Band Practice buildings. Sadly, due to it’s poor condition, the Small Arms Trainer building is now due to be replaced to replicate its former identity as close as possible. Albeit not listed, these buildings all have local historic and Architectural interest of which the local community have a desire for them to be restored to their former glory. Upon completion, these buildings will be managed by the Howe Park Trust for local community use and will include a creche, local meeting facilities, occasional markets and event spaces. EA were appointed as lead consultant in respect of RIBA Plan of Work stages 4 & 5.
