Overview
Cara Brickwork was chosen to build the Brickwork & blockwork on new £50m Vita Student Accommodation Development in York for Wates Construction.

Additional work on the 6.5 acre site included substantial Heritage work to 3nr existing listed Convent Buildings and external walls that required a sympathic approach in keeping with the long history of the site, with the use of traditional methods and materials.
