Colchester Visitor Information Centre
Colchester's St Botolph's Quarter is undergoing a radical reworking that includes extensive alterations to the built environment, together with a new £16.5m Visual Arts building. Colchester Visitors Information Centre is at a key node in the redevelopment strategy and is housed in one of the many historic building groups to be conserved.
This project combines repairs and alterations to an historic group of Colchester landmark buildings, with the creation of an expanded accessible facility, able to meet the demands of visitors to the ambitious new Cultural Quarter.
Inkpen Downie offer the special combination of consultancy skills this project requires, in the repair of historic buildings, and the design of robust, accessible interiors. The Visitors Information Centre benefited from the co-ordination of these skills to produce a sensitive and uniquely tailored solution.
Both English Heritage and Colchester Borough Council have invested in the project, which is also supported by Colchester2020 and Haven Gateway Partnership.
Colchester Borough Council has a website all about the new developments called Colchester for People. Visit the section on this project here.
