News - Town Hall’s new look (Barnsley)

SCAFFOLDING has been removed after a six-month project to restore the exterior of Barnsley’s historic Town Hall, leaving the masonry bright and clean.

Mayor of Barnsley Coun Karen Dyson and Barnsley Council leader, Coun Steve Houghton, proudly showed the work to Dr Fiona Spiers, director of the Heritage Lottery Fund which provided a grant.

The relaunch was also attended by schoolchildren and other officials.

The Town Hall will reopen in 2012 when it will be used as a new museum and archive centre, Experience Barnsley.
