Cottam House
Cottam House, 36-40 York Wy, London N1 9AB
Getjar Special Projects recently completed their Principal Contractor Role for the renovation at Cottam House. The project included demolition and enabling, the replacement ten windows and 2 doors, drying and decoration.
Cottam House sits at the corner of Railway Street and York Way, and the earliest recorded use of the site in a map from 1800, is as a mustard mill. A Blue Maker acquired the mill in the 1830s; Stone blue was an indigo vegetable dye, which was ground and mixed with starch to make a laundry whitener. There are also records of an enterprise that made an early type of fibreglass cloth for use in greenhouses.
Sympathetic renovation of a locally listed Victorian warehouse office building to provide the basis for an innovative hub for Techstyle start-ups.
