Premier Scaffolding Ltd. provides scaffolding for a heritage project: A £4m restoration of the Grade 2 listed Wythenshawe Hall for Manchester City Council (completed)
Grade 2 Listed Building Wythenshawe Hall, Manchester
An Enlarged timber framed and brick house, originally the seat of the Egerton family of Tatton. Central core is an early C16 timber framed hall, altered in C17, partly rebuilt in 1797, then enlarged in the early C19. The building suffered a major arson attack in March 2016. The significant damage has all been completely restored. The Hall and the surrounding 250 acres of park land, were given to the city by Lord and Lady Simon in 1926 to be enjoyed by the people of Manchester and beyond.
Wythenshawe Hall, the home of the Tatton family for over 600 years, which is now owned by Manchester City Council.
Notes from Repair and Restoration from Friends of Wythenshaw Hall
We were exceptionally lucky to have had such a great team working on the repairs. Conlon Construction who managed the hall during the repairs made sure that we were kept up to speed with every stage of the work and allowed us regular access to the building. We formed great relationships with all of the heritage experts from the many different specialist companies and have literally thousands of photo’s documenting every stage of the work.
During the repairs we were able to see parts of the building that probably have not been seen for at least 100 years, if not more. This enabled us to find out in depth how the construction of the hall had changed over the years and have a much better knowledge of how to care for it to ensure it has the best possible future.
