There’s a definite sense of excitement in the media now that we’re within two short years of the 2012 Olympic Games in London. Of course, there’s still plenty to do, but the government, businesses and the population at large seem to be looking forward to showcasing the rich culture and heritage that the UK has to offer. Here at Bygone, we’re dedicated to preserving traditional British heritage through our authentically designed sash windows. It’s nice to hear then that Derwent Sash Windows, the best selling Bygone approved installer in the country, has this month been tasked with an exciting new project.
The well established firm has been awarded a prestigious contract to replace 52 windows at Rotherham town hall with high quality Bygone sashes. We’re delighted to be able to provide these windows, which are the only kind that Derwent Sash Windows install. In addition to the Bygone NVQ level 2 training, Derwent sash windows have vast experience in cabinet making and carpentry, making their skills ideally suited to such a project.
Countless town centres across the United Kingdom display traditional architecture, and it’s good to see that local authorities are choosing the Bygone Collection in order to fulfil their duty of preserving such grand and impressive traditional buildings.
Rotherham Town Hall itself was built in 1929, meaning that our Victorian style sash windows will compliment its period magnificence effortlessly. Furthermore, the hall currently serves as a venue for numerous civil ceremonies and everyday activities, as well as being a popular setting for weddings. This makes it even more of a relief that our windows have been chosen, as weddings can henceforth be enjoyed and recorded with the grand backdrop they deserve.
It’s always nice to see evidence of hard work being rewarded, and with the country set to feature increasingly on the international stage in the coming years, there’s never been a better time for homeowners and the public sector alike to turn to genuine sash windows which so beautifully epitomise 400 years of British culture and architecture.
