Revised Architect Brief Clare Castle Country Park

Notice Description

ARCHITECT/DESIGN 1. INTRODUCTION Clare Castle Country Park Trust is seeking the services of a RIBA Accredited Conservation Architect (or similar) to provide the detailed design for the built heritage of this exciting and unusual project funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund. The Trustees have a wide range of experience and are supported by a considerable number of regular volunteers (over 60), many of whom have expertise in particular fields that are relevant to this project. The small town of Clare in Suffolk is a thriving place, steeped in history. It is made all the more attractive by the historic Park that adjoins it. The Park has undergone many changes in recent years, which have resulted in neglect and a lack of identity and direction. With new ownership and leadership in place since 2015, this project will mark a new era that sees the Park and Town being more closely integrated. An extensive programme of conservation work is required to preserve and bring to life the Park's heritage assets. However, this project is essentially about people and the community and their connections with this historic site. 2. OUTCOME.
