## Summary

The Cornwall Council is overseeing a public procurement process for the restoration and adaptation of the Assay Office at King Edward Mine, a notable site within the Cornish Mining World Heritage Site. This project, titled "King Edward Mine - Cafe, Events Field and Engine House," includes essential works to convert a Grade II* Listed building into a café, alongside enhancements to an events field. The procurement method being adopted is an open procedure, with a budget ranging from £575,000 to £625,000. The tender period closes on 5th February 2016, and the contract is expected to commence on 11th April 2016, concluding by 30th December 2016.

This tender offers significant opportunities for construction and restoration firms, particularly those experienced in working with heritage and listed properties. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as the project emphasises local engagement and expertise. Companies that provide services in construction, restoration, and event space enhancement will find this contract particularly appealing, given its focus on building transformation and community engagement through the creation of a new public destination.

## Notice

King Edward Mine is the oldest, most complete mine site left in Cornwall. The entire complex is within the Cornish Mining World Heritage Site (WHS), containing 16 Grade II* Listed buildings and South Condurrow Stamps Engine House which is Grade II Listed. This contract will carry out a major restoration and adaptation to the Assay Office, a Grade II* Listed building on Historic England's Heritage at Risk Register, transforming it into a new destination cafe, heated using ground source heating from the Events Field. We will be consolidating the South Condurrow Stamps Engine house to the rear of the Assay Office and enhancing the Events Field once the ground source heating is installed, providing an all-weather surface for over-flow car parking and events, as well as water and electricity pick up. There will be a second contract, carrying out works to the Boiler House, Mill and Stamps and Core Buildings which will run concurrently with this contract.
