Patterdale Fire Station Officially Opens

Patterdale Fire Station was officially opened on 15th December by the Chief Fire Officer of Cumbria. The station is the first of 16 community fire stations being developed across Cumbria, Lancashire and Merseyside as part of the North West Fire and Rescue Authority PFI project.

Equity Solutions company bluesky is the architect responsible for designing eight of the 16 fire stations for the Balfour Beatty Fire and Rescue  consortium.

The building is a small one-bay station located in the heart of the National Park and in a conservation area. As such, it was designed to harmonise with its rural surroundings, utilising traditional materials and dispensing with the more usual red cladding.
