## About this tender

Shipton Reading Room, our Village Hall, is a Cotswold stone building built 110 years ago. It has changed very little since then and it has had very little improvement over the years.

A structural survey carried out in 2015 has shown that the hall is in dire need of renovation and is progressing towards dilapidation. Quite apart from the many structural issues it is cold, damp and unwelcoming.

The current capacity of the building is capped at 60 by the fire regulations because there is only one way in and out of the building.

The proposed project is to carry out a major renovation of the building including: rewiring, new plumbing, new drainage and sewage system, roof stripped, insulated and retiled, new energy efficient heating system, replacement of rotten floor joists, replacement of rotten windows, and resolution of the several damp issues. In addition there will be a small extension which will create a new entrance lobby and provide space for modern, wheelchair accessible toilets. Creating a new entrance will create space within the existing building for an appropriately sized kitchen and designated storage room.

Additional information: The Tender Pack is now available for this project. If you are interested in tendering for the project - please request the pack using the using the email address above. Priority will be given to local companies as it is important to this project that it provides employment in our area.
