Introduction

Welcome to the Bowater House Website.

Bowater House is a nine storey housing block near the centre of West Bromwich which is part of the West Midlands, United Kingdom. Bowater House is at present undergoing a high quality refurbishment scheme which is being carried out by Wates Construction Ltd, on behalf of Sandwell Housing Department. Designed by Sandwell's Building Services Division, it will incorporate several elements which underline Sandwell's commitment to making Energy Management a Reality.

The forty one week programme commenced in March 1998 and will provide high quality, affordable accommodation for the next thirty years. The basis of the plan is for Bowater House to be as energy efficient as possible. It will be one of the first schemes in the UK to invest in the benefits of solar energy as a renewable source for high-rise social housing.

This website has been designed by students from Bristnall Hall High School to provide accessible information about the regeneration of Bowater House.
