In 2017 work started on the first phase of restoring the greenhouse roof. Timber was in need of being cleaned up and repainted, a s well as a few small pieces replaced. This work was completed throughout the summer and has resulted in roofs that are now watertight, with the spaces below now being used as a café for the public and function space (The Vinery) that can be hired (contact us by email for more info; admin@beyondthewall.org.uk ).
With us going into 2018, phase two of the greenhouse roof restoration has started. Timbers have been cleaned up and glass reset and replaced as needed. The second phase is now nearing completion, and will provide us with a large watertight space that will house a number of therapeutic activities that we run for the people accessing Beyond the Walls services in the dry and light space beneath. We look forward to this phase of the project be9ing completed by the end of 2018.
