SH Structures Ltd - Administration

SH Structures Ltd, a North Yorkshire-based contractor that employs around 70 people, entered administration on 4 April.

The company, which has a reputation for delivering specialist bridges and complex steel structures, was working on Worcester's Kepax Bridge. It was hit hard by the downturn in the construction industry following the COVID-19 pandemic, which meant that fewer complex architectural structures were being built, putting the business under extreme pressure.

Andrew Mackenzie and Louise Longley of Begbies Traynor were appointed joint administrators.

Lloyds Bank has a registered charge against the company.
