Restoration and Interpretation of Brixham Battery
Location: Devon
The project aims to raise awareness of a series of second world war batteries as heritage features in their own right and their importance to the wartime heritage of the area. Restoration of the batteries will take place using teams of volunteers to prepare, landscape and be trained in architectural conservation techniques.
A virtual tour will be developed to enable visitors with disabilities to access the full site, again working with volunteers to develop the capacity of the group. Training will take place for another group to enable them to produce a video that will extend the use of the site into the wider community.
They will also install information boards for educational use by visitors and launch the finished project to the local community, particularly schools and community groups who are already liaising with the Brixham Battery Heritage members.
