Merrydale Manor, Knutsford

Merrydale Manor approached us to assist with a planning application for an opulent new function suite at their existing estate near Knutsford in Cheshire. The function suite was to be used for weddings, parties and corporate events - all of which can generate noise.

Our work on the development including an inspection of the area and noise monitoring to establish the background noise climate in the area during key periods.

Taking into account the potential noise levels that could be generated in the new function suite (which we drew from our vast library of noise data), we were able to determine to what extent noise egress may be an issue and make recommendations accordingly.

Our noise assessment report was submitted as part of the planning application and consent was duly granted.

The function suite opened in mid 2017 to great acclaim.
