Project Tullie Phase 2++ Castle Street: Main Contractor Services ITT

Summary

Phase 2++ will see the conservation and adaption of a series of at-risk buildings on Castle Street, part of Carlisle's Historic Quarter. Having sat empty for several years, ownership of the buildings was transferred to the Trust in 2023 with the aim of expanding the museum and bringing new life and purpose to underused buildings, left in a state of disrepair. The Castle Street development project will see the spaces transformed into a series of rooms for community and creative use, including workshop and meeting spaces. The unique location of the buildings will allow for continued public access outside of the museum opening times, increasing accessibility and our inclusive approach to programming activity. As part of Project Tullie Phase 2, works were undertaken to transform the Old City Hall and Gatehouse buildings into meeting, retail and office spaces for the museum. The Castle Street project will continue this work, focusing on buildings 6-16 Castle Street. The tender documents can be shared upon request. Please contact sale@appleyardandtrew.co.uk.
