Downwell is stripping out and dismantling the world-famous studio buildings where the Harry Potter films were all made, as was the James Bond film Goldeneye.
Seven stage set buildings will be stripped of their ceilings, roofs and sound-proofing to allow new structures to be built for upcoming blockbusters.
Downwell will use a combination of scissor access platforms and specialist demolition excavators to remove scaffolding, ceiling ducts, roof panels and skylights from the structures as well as demolishing several ancillary buildings adjacent to the main studios. The strip-out and deconstruction will take place with some stage sets and archive libraries still present within the structures.
A full recycling programme will be implemented for all materials removed from the site.
