roBust rainwater system For Bridlington’s new rnli station Bridlington’s new lifeBoat station is set to open, replacing the 114 year old original station which has become outdated, cramped and impractical. Echoing Art Deco lines, building materials for the new station were chosen for both design impact and durability, as the construction will have to withstand the Northeast coastal elements for many years to come. With this in mind a stainless steel rainwater system from Yeoman Rainguard was chosen. Functional yet stylish, 145 x 165mm box gutters and 80mm dia. downpipes were fitted complementing the sleek linear appearance of the lifeboat house.
