Stuart the site manager for the contractors (Stone Edge) was welcomed at 7.30am this morning to start the run in for what will be a tight restoration schedule. At the same time there is a lot of preparation needed by the Greater Manchester Building Preservation Trust and the Edgar Wood Society, especially removing items to a safe storage area and journeys to the waste disposal site.Nick the Edgar Wood Society archivist was also on site to safely store all the vital research material that has been sourced over the years. Nick’s space is almost empty or at least the selves, but the hall is another story.
