Witherford Watson Mann Architects adds timber River Wing extension to Cambridge college

British architecture studio Witherford Watson Mann has inserted an oak-framed structure into a narrow site within the Grade I-listed Clare College at Cambridge University.
Originally built in 1326 and then reconstructed in 1785, the 1,060-square-metre college needed an update to improve its accessibility, escape routes and services, as well as more flexible space to house its growing community.
