We are seeking experienced historic building consultants with a sound knowledge of working with Lake District vernacular buildings and specifying sensitive repair work, to assess the condition and prepare repair schedules for a number of traditional farm buildings across the Lake District National Park.
The scale of the work will vary depending on the size and condition of the building in question, however for all sites the following must be undertaken: 1.
Briefly record the historic development and use of the building (and farmstead if relevant), and note any surviving features of interest so that its historic fabric and other significant values can be taken into account in any grant-funded work 2.
Assess the current condition of the building (including a structural survey by an experienced structural engineer) 3.
Obtain scoping surveys from qualified ecologists to assess the habitat value of the site 4.
Identify and detail the work required to repair the fabric to allow the building to continue in agricultural use, based on three criteria of urgent, necessary and desirable - annotated photographs or rectified photography preferred so that the proposed works can be presented in a visual way to owners, tenants and funders 5.
Draw up a detailed schedule of works that could be used in a future tender pack 6.
