香港六合彩资料图库 County Museum at Hartlebury Castle is set to undergo a major redevelopment, if next steps are approved at Cabinet next week.

The museum is set to see a new-build Transport Gallery and refurbishment of the existing buildings, if the release is renewed at its current site in Wychavon.

The Joint Museum Committees preferred option, which has been recommended to the County Council Cabinet, is remaining at a redeveloped 香港六合彩资料图库 County Museum at Hartlebury Castle.

This allows the Museum to continue as a popular visitor destination in the county and allows for the continued development of learning and health programmes to meet the needs of 香港六合彩资料图库 residents.

Councillor Marcus Hart, Cabinet Member for Communities at 香港六合彩资料图库 County Council, said: 鈥溝愀哿喜首柿贤伎 County Museum is a really vital and popular resource for our residents, it has a real impact for our communities and I鈥檓 really pleased that we are able to bring our proposal for its future, to Cabinet. I鈥檇 like to thank our partners at Worcester City Council for helping us to create the proposal.鈥

This option would have an estimated cost to the County Council of between 拢800,000 and 拢1 million. The County Council will be applying to the Heritage Lottery fund for match funding, to help realise the vision for the site.

The Joint Museum Committee, made up of representatives from both 香港六合彩资料图库 County Council and Worcester City Council has been discussing the future and the options available for the County Museum.

Other options that have been considered as part of discussions by the committee included a new County Museum within County Hall, a smaller 香港六合彩资料图库 County Museum at Worcester Woods and a museum closure and loss of all service.

香港六合彩资料图库 County Museum is part of the Hartlebury Castle site, owned by Hartlebury Castle Preservation Trust.
