GNAA Case Studies
The Beamish Museum

SECTOR:
Leisure and Commercial
LOCATION:
Beamish, Northumberland
CLIENT:
Museum Authorities

     
     

DESCRIPTION:
World-famous award-winning open air museum depicting life in the North East in the early 19th and 20th centuries.

PROJECT DETAILS:
GNAA provided the complete red granite exterior of an Edwardian Bank (originally located in a Southport street), for an early 20th century street re-creation at the museum, complete with exterior Ionic columns, ornate door pediment and associated ironwork to windows.

GNAA also provided many artefacts for the museum, including everything from a village water pump and steam heating range to a Wurlitzer travelling harp case.

SUMMARY:
Again, great pleasure to see a distinguished building frontage from the days of the horse and carriage preserved for the enjoyment of so many heritage buffs.
