We are often approached by organisations asking HTNW to be custodians of properties that have laid empty for generations, and to find new purposes for these buildings in the 21st century. We work with imagineers, project managers, conservatores, academics, archaeologists, and conservation trade skilled individuals and organisations and funders to restore and reimagine properties in a sensitive and sustainable manner. Our conservation to work to date is a testament to our approach, from its origins at Parkhill Barn/Pendle Heritage Centre to the Georgian Mansion House and Estate of Lytham Hall, to industrial terraced houses and grand Victorian mills.
Having painstakingly restored these properties we open our doors to members of the public and to residents who can live their contemporary lives within these fabulously reinstated historic environments. Our latest success has been at Bank Hall, Bretherton (near Chorley) and in December 2022 its doors will open to the Prospect Tower to share the story of how the Friends of Bank Hall campaigned alongside HTNW to restore this historic house and enable it to be home once again.
