Location

In the historic confines of Trinity College, the Rubrics building stands as a testament to centuries past. As the oldest edifice on the Trinity campus, the Rubrics exude the character of seventeenth-century architecture. However, recognizing the need for modernization and efficiency, a refurbishment project was initiated in 2021 to transform the Rubrics into a more functional residential facility while preserving its rich heritage. This ambitious endeavour sought to expand the building's capacity and enhance its energy efficiency. Central to this transformation was the installation of ground source heat pumps, heralding a new era of environmentally friendly heating for the Rubrics.
