FREE Heritage Open Days in Huddersfield 2015 Thursday 10 – Sunday 13 September About Heritage Open Days Heritage Open Days celebrate England’s fantastic architecture and culture by offering free access to places that are usually closed to the public or normally charge for admission. Every year on four days in September, buildings of every age, style and function throw open their doors. It is a once-a-year chance to discover architectural treasures and enjoy a wide range of tours, events and activities that bring local history and culture to life. Once again this year, Huddersfield Local History Society and Huddersfield Civic Society have taken the initiative to coordinate a vibrant programme of activities for Huddersfield Town centre, supported by Kirklees Council. The two societies are members of Discover Huddersfield, a community-led partnership offering new ways to experience the town’s buildings, businesses and social history. The result is a programme that brings exciting opportunities to visit important local buildings – some of which are opening their doors to the public for the very first time. There are also walks and talks, exhibitions and events to enjoy. Events organised by other local groups are also included in this brochure. The steering group would like to thank all of the property owners who are taking part this year and the groups and individuals who have contributed to the programme. On a national level, the programme is managed by Heritage Open Days which is supported by the National Trust, with funding from Players of People’s Postcode Lottery.

Shelving is full and archives are now stacking up on the floor due to a lack of storage space. There is also an accessioning backlog due to lack of curatorial resources.” Local Authority museum, West Midlands “At the time of writing we are about to enter a process to reduce costs by cutting staff - it is unknown how this might impact on the archaeology team… Since last year we have had to absorb a large number of archives being held by a decommissioned field unit which has reduced our capacity [to collect]….” Local Authority museum, South West “Reduction in curator hours by 0.5FTA in 2013, followed by loss of 0.5FTA collections manager role in 2016 due to retirement, which role has not been replaced… Continuing pressure on council budgets making life increasingly difficult…” Local Authority museum, South East “Our staffing level has increased due to a change in our circumstances from government to charity, we had a lump sum to spend, once this is used up, staffing levels will go back to previous levels, if not lower…” Charitable Trust museum, North East i Museums Collecting Archaeology (England) REPORT YEAR 2: November 2017 © Historic England Contents 1 SUMMARY ...............................................................................................................
