Comments sought on Bletchley Park proposals

An event on 8 December will allow the public to view plans for the regeneration of part of the historic Bletchley Park WW2 codebreaking site in Buckinghamshire into a museum and education resource.

The Prince's Regeneration Trust (PRT) is project managing the scheme and envisages the restoration of buildings in several areas, including some of the huts in which the code breaking took place and which are now derelict. Elsewhere, facilities for visitors will be improved, clearer walking routes provided and the space available for school visits increased. The re-displayed areas will use graphic and 3D design as well as modern audio-visual aids to provide interpretation of the unique work carried out at the site.

Kennedy O'Callaghan have been appointed architects to the scheme, with Event Communications handling the design of the interpretation and exhibition of the Bletchley Park story. The Bletchley Park Trust was awarded a £460,000 Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) first round pass in autumn 2009 to work up the development phase of the project. The PRT was then appointed to lead the design work and obtain the necessary listed building and planning consents and reports for a second round HLF application for £4.1m.
