Quattro was appointed for the conversion of a disused barn, constructed in the 1980s, to a single residential dwelling at Maugersbury, near Stow-on-the Wold. The scheme also included a new garage and replacement stables. The client lived in the dwelling adjacent to the barn and it was their intention to move into the barn upon completion. The barn and yard has its own access off the lane, beyond the separate residential access to the existing house. The barn lies within a complex of buildings and a dwelling historically constructed for the purposes of an agricultural and equestrian business. This was not used by the present owners and stood empty. The owners regarded it as surplus to their requirements. The site lies within the Cotswolds AONB and a woodland TPO covers trees surrounding the barn, mainly between the barn and lane. A designated heritage asset is also located within the woodland to the south of the site.
