James Durrans & Sons Ltd supply the world’s manufacturing industries with carbonaceous materials.

For James Durrans & Sons Ltd’s 150th trading anniversary, Howell Goodfellow undertook the role of Employer’s Agent and Quantity Surveyor for the construction of their brand new state of the art multi-million pound headquarters at Phoenix Works, Penistone.

The rugby ball-shaped headquarters building boasts a glass and stone design with a sloped oval roof totalling 11,917 sq ft over 4 storeys. The office building has been developed on the same site in Penistone where the firm was founded in 1863 overlooking the River.

Existing buildings were demolished to facilitate an improved access to the new HQ.
