With UBS having vacated 1 Golden Lane, the building is to be redeveloped. It is not clear yet exactly what "redeveloped" means, whether largely demolished and rebuilt as something else or merely cleaned up and re-fitted, but the first step is to strip-out the current internal fittings and drill some boreholes to study the ground beneath the building.
The work will be done by a firm called KpH who are, of course, considerate contractors. Work details for the project were explained in the following letter and flyer, along with project contact details.
Here are the contact details from the letter ...
Borehole work by A2:
- Oliver Cottam: 0744 694 4137
- Richard Beaumont: 0756 565 0530
Strip-out work by KpH:
- Phil Dunt: 0770 338 1743
- Marius Sadauskas: 07985 038 9866 (this looks wrong, but is as given)
- Andrew Mackie: 0795 038 9866
Here's hoping the boring is boring and they don't find any lingering WWII ordinance!
Update ... here is the text of an email received by the house group on this topic

Dear Stakeholder,
I am writing to you to inform you of the Soft Strip Out and Borehole works that are due to commence at 1 Golden Lane from January 2022. I would be very grateful if you could pass this information on to anyone living in proximity to 1 Golden Lane so that they can also be fully informed.
The Strip Out work will be confined to internal, non-heritage elements of the building to ensure noise, dust and other disruption will be kept to a minimum. Removing the internal finishes in the building at this early stage will provide a comprehensive understanding of the existing building to allow the proposal to maximise re-use opportunities and ultimately reduce the programme duration of the development and any disruption to our neighbours.
Borehole works will commence on Wednesday 12th January and run for approximately 5 business days until Tuesday 18th January. The Soft Strip Out works will commence on Monday 17th January and are expected to be complete at the end of March 2022.
The following works have been planned:
- Borehole/ foundation survey tests to the south elevation vehicle ramp
- Soft strip of materials internally to the building, including waste clearance
- Removal of external plant and finishes to terraces/ roof
Noise monitoring will be undertaken throughout the duration of the works and will be constantly reviewed to ensure that is remains compliant with The City of London regulations.
If you have any concerns or questions about the Borehole works, please contact A2 Site Supervisor, Oliver Cottam or A2 Project Manager, Richard Beaumont. Their contact details are below.
