Location

North East England:

Description

The Gloucester Museum, also known as the City Museum and Art Gallery on Brunswick Road, is a Grade II listed building included on the National Heritage List for England under entry number 1245964. Its designation recognises both the architectural quality and the historic significance of the building, which was originally constructed in 1892-3. Care should be taken and any works covered by this specification should be done sympathetically towards the building's fabric. This tender relates specifically to the fire alarm system at Gloucester Museum which forms part of a wider project which will eventually encompass a comprehensive refurbishment of the building, the present works are confined to addressing urgent non-compliance issues within the existing fire alarm installation. In delivering the works, contractors must exercise particular care to avoid unnecessary disturbance to the historic fabric of the museum. Penetrations through decorative ceilings, walls, and joinery should be minimised, and wherever possible existing routes for services should be utilised. Devices must be positioned discreetly so as not to detract from the historic interior, and where replacements are required, they should be sympathetic in appearance to their setting. All works should be documented, and any interventions that affect the building's heritage features MUST be discussed and agreed in advance with conservation officers or other relevant authorities.
