Pinnacle is proud to have delivered the deep retrofit of 1 Deangate, York for York Minster, creating sustainable, accessible office and welfare space for staff and volunteers.
The refurbishment combines heritage conservation with low-carbon innovation, featuring air source heat pumps, real-time energy monitoring, water-saving technologies, upgraded insulation, and traditional double-glazed timber sash windows.
A key feature is the installation of GB-Sol PV Slate solar slates, a conservation-friendly renewable energy solution that seamlessly blends modern solar technology with the building’s historic character.
The project forms part of York Minster’s Neighbourhood Plan, an ambitious programme to enhance the environmental performance, cultural significance, and long-term sustainability of the Minster Precinct and its buildings.
