Overton Architects is an architectural practice providing a reliable, friendly and professional service to all our clients.

From inception to completion we offer the same level of care and dedication to all our projects. Partner: Mike Overton (RIBA) joined Wales, Wales & Rawson in 1989, becoming a partner in 1999.

St Alkeldas is a very fine Grade I listed church in Giggleswick dating from the 15th century.
In 2011 we were appointed to design and oversee the reordering work to the church.
The works included removing some of the pews to create a meeting space at the west end of the church and an exhibition space in the North Aisle.
The removed pews were re-used to create built in storage to match the existing paneling.
In addition we enclosed the existing Lady Chapel which enables it to be used independently for children's liturgy and weekday services and installed a new kitchen.
