Office Conversion
Connolly Scaffolding were awarded the contract to provide the scaffolding package for the Ashton-under-Lyne HMRC building conversion.
Once dubbed the ‘ugliest building in Ashton’, the vacant ten storey office block will undergo extensive renovations to convert it into apartments.
The exterior will receive a significant facelift, bringing Oakglade House into the 21st Century and delivering a range of desirable accommodation just 8 miles from Manchester City centre.
This extensive, 16-week project will require fourteen, 2-metre scaffold lifts and 2 hoists to ease manual handling while renovation and building works continue.
The entire scaffold will be built in our innovative Plettac Metrix Sytem, with a beam section over the services providing access.
Connolly Scaffolding. On time, in budget, every time.

Connolly Scaffolding are extremely proud to announce that we have been awarded the contract to provide the scaffolding solution to facilitate maintenance works on the world famous Clifton Suspension Bridge. The iconic Clifton Suspension Bridge is a Grade I listed building which was originally designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel who passed away without seeing the completion of the bridge. A revision was made to Brunel’s original design by William Henry Barlow and Sir John Hawkshaw with a wider, higher and sturdier deck than Brunel intended, with triple chains instead of double. Construction of the bridge was completed in 1864. The securing of this prestigious project is a testament to how Connolly Scaffolding are trusted by our clients to deliver complex scaffolding solutions on large scale projects. Keep an eye out for the technical write up for the project and of course drone videos and images as the project progresses.
