Barker Langham produced a new audience development, access and activity plan for the project, as well as making successful applications to other funders, including English Heritage.

As a result, the project is fully funded – and the Weir will be saved.

“The Calver Weir Restoration Project has been working with Barker Langham for more than two years and has benefited considerably from its expertise, support, use of its information bank and extensive network of contacts,” says Mike Hennessey, chair of the CWRP. “All of which has enabled the successful completion of our project funding.”
