Description

The Wordsworth Trust has been celebrating the life and Poetry of William Wordsworth since 1891. It is now developing ambitious plans to make it possible for even more people to discover one of greatest poets. The Trust is looking for an Architect and Multi-Disciplinary Team who will demonstrate an understanding of the special nature of this project and has significant experience working on heritage properties. In addition, the Wordsworth Trust is seeking to appoint an Interpretation Planner and Interpretation Designer. It is important to note that 'Interpretation Designer' has been used, as interpretation is required covering both the interior and external site environment, including woodland trails. This is an exciting opportunity to create a completely new interpretation of a unique literary heritage site, a poet's home with internationally important collections in the heart of the Lake District. A full brief is attached as invitation to tender.
