Design and construction

of the Compton and Edrich

stands, Lord’s Cricket

Ground redevelopment

SYNOPSIS
This paper describes the key design and construction
challenges of the Compton and Edrich stands – two
striking additions to Lord’s Cricket Ground in London.
The new stands increase the capacity of the ground and
bring new sponsor boxes and other modern facilities.
The design includes steel moment frames and a steel-
framed canopy, with a secondary timber beam network,
partially covering the stands. The varying geometry
of the stands required complex steelwork fabrication.
Construction challenges included the programme
constraints of working around the cricket seasons, and
the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic around six months
after work began on site.
