Guests have a look at how new archive centre is taking shape
-
INVITED guests met with the teams building the two new centres in Chester and Crewe that will co-host the region’s archives as works really start to take shape to completely transform the county’s archive.
Councillor Louise Gittins, leader of Cheshire West and Chester Council, said: "Cheshire Archives Chester and Cheshire Archives Crewe will be the new homes for our priceless Cheshire Archives collection.
"It's with thanks to our funders The National Lottery Heritage Fund and the Wolfson Foundation that this exciting project can be delivered.
"Two new fly through videos are now being shared on the project website www.cheshirestoryshared.org taking visitors through the buildings giving a flavour of how they will look."
Cheshire Archives Chester is being built on the site of the former Enterprise Centre on Lightfoot Street in Hoole and is included in the wider One City Plan. Construction company Kier started onsite last autumn.
