Dating back to the early 1800’s the Axiom in Winchcombe Street was originally built as stables and was subsequently used by corn and feed merchants. In the late 1970’s it became a live music and arts centre until 2000 when it was closed, left derelict and gradually the building fell into disrepair.

The £1.5m restoration took just ten months to complete and resulted in a unique development offering an exclusive mix of nineteen individual and beautifully designed one and two bedroom apartments and one retail unit within a carefully and sympathetically restored building.
