Nursing Home - Carrickfergus
The Nursing Home at Carrickfergus is the third project undertaken by ADP for the Primecare Group, but this time is a standalone home on a brown-field site.
Design
This is a sloping site on a corner location, falling considerably both away from the main approach direction and right to left. The more spacious site allowed a full H shape plan form and is a development from that of the Dunmurry home. The home again extends over three floors with the main residential accommodation on the ground and first floor level. The roof is a mansard style, similar to Dunmurry, to again allow the building to present a more domestic scale elevation in this prominent position. The kitchen and ancillary areas are restricted to one leg of the plan
