The Severnside training center was the former Education Traded and Support Services that served the South Gloucestershire area. The facilities were moved elsewhere as part of the restructuring of services within the council and as such the buildings were surplus to requirements with demolition paving the way for a new sports pitch and residential housing.
The site comprised of the following:
- A two storey learning centre with basement boiler room and training centre at the rear.
- Single brick-built building with offices, stores and a kitchen.
Works included the soft strip of internal fixtures and fittings, in-house removal of asbestos containing materials, demolition of existing buildings down to top of floor slab, uplifting of slabs and foundations, crushing and stockpiling at agreed location.
