Marlborough has been awarded the £1.5 million masonry contract on the Priory City of Lincoln Academy by Balfour Beatty Construction. The package comprises brickwork, blockwork, wet cast stone and GRC with design features including traditional brick soldier courses, stone window surrounds, arches and feature piers.

The City of Lincoln Academy is part of the Priory Federation of Academies which will merge 5 schools in Lincoln into 3 multi-million pound academies for Lincolnshire County Council. This is believed to be the largest academies scheme in the country. This new award follows on from our successful completion of the £1.1 million masonry package on phase one of the Priory Witham Academy.

Six buildings make up the City of Lincoln Academy; a main 2-storey building and five single-storey teaching pods. Works will be carried out in two phases with the main building and two pods in phase one, and the remaining three pods following on after demolition of the existing buildings. The academy, which specializes in Engineering and Sports, will house 11-18 year old students from the City of Lincoln Community College.
