At the recent Institute of Structural Engineers award ceremony in London, the Royal National Lifeboat Institution scooped the fifth award for its Padtsow Lifeboat Station. The station houses the 25-knot Tamar class all-weather lifeboat.

Its innovative design was the work of architects Poynton Bradbury Wynter Cole, along with consulting engineers Royal Haskoning, and it was built by Nuttall John Martin Construction.
