Projects

Land of historic or design interest, buildings large or small, ancient or fairly new – any of these may be of interest to Richmondshire Building Preservation Trust.

Our notable project to date is The Station in Richmond, a stunning, riverside, Victorian railway building brought back to life as a fantastic cultural, eating, shopping and entertainment venue for the local community and visitors to Richmond. The Station has just celebrated its eleventh birthday in its successful new role.

Applications are invited from individuals and organisations who may need advice and/or a contribution towards work on smaller projects where a significant building is at risk.
