1 Media Statement: Thursday 14 December 2017 AUCKLAND TOWER AND AUCKLAND CASTLE OPENING DATES ANNOUNCED Auckland Tower: Saturday, 21 July 2018 Auckland Castle: Saturday, 1 December 2018 The official launch dates for Auckland Tower, a new visitor welcome centre, and the reopening of Auckland Castle have been announced today by The Auckland Project. Auckland Castle Auckland Castle will re-open to the public in time for a Christmas celebration in To coincide with the annual Christmas Market and festival holiday period, the historical home of the Prince Bishops of Durham will re-open its doors to the public on Saturday, 1 December 2018, following a multi-million pound conservation programme. The launch had always been scheduled for 2018, however due to a number of fascinating finds and a few unexpected challenges, the Castle re-opening has been moved from summer 2018 to 1 December During the initial phases of construction work, carried out by Meldrum Construction Services Ltd and supported by Archaeological Services Durham University, previously unknown historical features were revealed. These exciting finds have shone new light on the history of the Castle and the important role it has played over the centuries. Many of these features date back to the Tudor period, including a beautifully engraved serving hatch from 1500, discovered in the old kitchen, which features carved details matching those in the Buttery at Durham Castle. 1
2 Also uncovered within this space, are historic window and door openings, which are thought to have been constructed in the Tudor period, but have later been decorated with elaborate cusp mouldings from the mid-17th century, likely during the episcopate of Bishop Cosin ( ). Upstairs a Tudor Fireplace decorated with the coat of arms of Bishop Ruthall ( ), has been uncovered, together with significant historic wallpapers dating from the 1720s through to the 1830s. An archaeological excavation earlier this summer revealed that a proportion of the Castle s Scotland Wing was without substantial foundations. The Auckland Project has worked with Meldrum Construction Services Ltd. to respond quickly to this major civil engineering challenge, underpinning the building to secure its long-term future and making it fit for purpose to house to the Faith Museum from David Maddan commented: When working with historical buildings, one is never sure what to expect until you begin to scrape behind the surface layer. The main section of the Castle dates back to the late medieval period, and we have been very fortunate that the surprises uncovered have been both exciting and relatively simple to resolve. This has had an impact on our timescales, and the conservation programme was altered to accommodate the exploration, research and documentation of these findings. An 11.4 million investment has been made in the conservation of Auckland Castle, for which we thank our funders, the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF). This work demands careful attention to high quality, to do justice to both the building and the history of the Prince Bishops of Durham. To ensure that we have time to deliver the project to the highest standard, we will open to the public in December. Meldrum Construction Services Ltd. continues to deliver an excellent service. Work is progressing well and the site will be handed back to us in the summer. We then have the exciting job of bringing to life this beautiful historic castle with the vision, skill and commitment of our curatorial team and the plans that they have been developing for over two years. 2
3 The transformation of Auckland Castle from an empty shell will take several months. The historic interiors will be painstakingly re-presented; metres of heavy damask curtains will be hung, specially woven carpets laid and period furniture upholstered. There are over 50 paintings to be displayed, including the return of the Zurbarán paintings, currently on show in the USA. Hundreds of artefacts and objects are to be placed within the rooms, including important pieces of furniture designed by James Wyatt ( ) for Bishop Barrington in the 1790s, and visitor information prepared and installed. The final touches, with a Christmas theme, will be in place for the December launch and ready to welcome visitors over the forthcoming festive season. Auckland Tower The public will be able to climb the 29 metre high Auckland Tower taking in the views, as well as exploring inside the new ticket hall from Saturday, 21 July 2018, when it officially opens to the public. Auckland Tower is The Auckland Project s purpose built welcome centre, designed by award winning architects Niall McLaughlin. The ground floor contains a reception and ticketing desk and the first floor, which features a beautifully stencilled ceiling, will hold information on the Project, Castle and Prince Bishops. Visitors can enter the viewing tower from either floor before taking the lift or stairs to see the amazing views. This is an innovative and challenging building to construct as David Cox, Project Director, explains: The architects have created a beautiful but complex building. At the outset we had earmarked a spring opening, but progress to the build was delayed earlier this year. The construction of the lift shaft and erection of the timber frame has taken longer than expected. This is because of material delays and the need to be safe working at height in stormy weather. The Auckland Project and VEST Construction are both eager to deliver this complex design to the architect s detailed specification. To ensure that all of the intricate features are executed accurately, the build period has been extended until May
4 At this time, Durham County Council will complete the road re-alignment in front of Auckland Tower, whilst the internal furniture fit out takes place. The Auckland Project staff will undergo extensive customer service and ticketing system training, to ensure that all visitors receive a warm welcome when the building opens. More details regarding the public opening events programme for both Auckland Tower and Auckland Castle will be released in Ends Note to newsdesks: For more information please contact: Ann Cooper, Head of Communications at The Auckland Project on or ann.cooper@aucklandproject.org Or Claire Buchan, Communications Manager at The Auckland Project on or claire.buchan@aucklandproject.org About The Auckland Project: The Auckland Project, based in Bishop Auckland, is working with the community and other key partners to help raise aspirations and create opportunities through arts, heritage and a culture of learning. As part of this long-term ambition, the charity* is developing a visitor destination of international significance, including a Spanish Art Gallery, Deer Park, Walled Garden, landmark Auckland Tower welcome centre, Faith Museum and Auckland Castle, once home to the Prince Bishops of Durham. The first of these new attractions, The Mining Art Gallery, opened in Bishop Auckland on October 21, 2017, with the others launching in stages over the next three years. The Auckland Project s dedicated Engagement Team is also working closely with schools and community groups to deliver a range of life changing programmes for all ages, designed to increase educational attainment, enhance employability, boost community spirit and improve health and wellbeing for current and future generations. 4
5 By 2020 the charity aims to create 8,000 opportunities for learning and skills development, including 60 apprenticeships. To date, more than 130m has been committed to the Project, including 11.4m thanks to National Lottery players via the Heritage Lottery Fund.
