Pathways into the Past

Local residents cannot have helped but notice the changes that have been happening at Petersfield Museum’s home at the old police station and courthouse over the past month. Wooden hoardings have gone up in front of the police station on St Peter’s Road, there is scaffolding along the length of the lane (twitten) leading to Hylton Road and delivery lorries dropping off building supplies regularly.

Building contractors have this week moved onto the police station and courthouse site to start work on Petersfield Museum’s ‘Pathways into the Past’ redevelopment and refurbishment project. Enabling work began on the 29th of July with remedial and construction work starting on the 5th of August.

After a long and detailed procurement process, over seen by Hampshire County Council on behalf of Petersfield Museum, it can be revealed that Phoenix Construction Services Ltd have been selected to deliver the base build for the museum’s ‘Pathways into the Past’ project.

In anticipation of our major redevelopment project starting, we have transferred into our temporary project office, located at 13 Dragon Street, Petersfield, Hampshire, GU31 4JN, telephone 01730 262601.
