BUILDING WORK IN EMSWORTH MUSEUM

The Trust has been pleased to receive a number of bequests from Members and non-Members and the Committee decided that a portion of this money should be used to improve and update the facilities in Emsworth Museum. To this end Mr. Jim Garland, a local Architect, has been appointed to produce a design that will make better use of some of the rooms, allow for easier storage space and create an area

where visitors can watch videos, listen to tape recordings and do family history research. Work will start soon to give a disabled toilet, move the office to the west side of the building and create an activity/study room where the office previously was. An opening will be created in the wall between the David Rudkin Room and the new activity room, with doors between the two rooms, so that the area can be used either as one

room or two. No work is at present planned for the main exhibition room and this will remain unchanged for the time being.
Mr. Garland has agreed to come to the Lumley Room on 8 March 2007 at 7.30p.m. so that he can talk about his ideas and give an update on progress with the work before the business of the A.G.M. begins.
