NLHF expect a completed Interpretation Plan to
form part of the stage 2 application bid to outline what activities
the Museum service will run following the successful completion of
this project.
The Interpretation plan will inform the design of the spaces within
the museum.
The proposed £15m significant redevelopment of the Grade 2
listed Hereford Museum and Art Gallery is a flagship project in the
Hereford Town Investment Plan. The project will establish a modern
high quality museum and art gallery visitor experience, attracting
high profile exhibitions, providing additional space to display
local heritage artefacts potentially including the Herefordshire
Hoard, include a café and shop, and provide opportunities
for corporate hospitality. A key feature of the proposed project is
a culture trail on the roof of the historic building offering views
over the city, including the Hereford Cathedral located opposite
the site.
