Strathnaver Museum Strathnaver Museum is located on the north coast of Sutherland near the village of Bettyhill. The museum is housed in a former ecclesiastical building which is B listed and provides a fitting home for the museum which is closely tied to the history of the Clearances.

The museum is run by a dedicated team of volunteers. The aim of the museum is to preserve and promote the history and culture of the area through the conservation, interpretation and development of the collections. The museum exhibits follow four broad themes; • The Clearances • Highland Life • Archaeology • Mackay Clan Centre Strathnaver Museum is accredited by Museum Galleries Scotland and houses a large collection of important artefacts from the Bronze Age to the present day. In addition to the extensive Clearances collection, the museum owns the Bronze Age Chealamy Beaker which was found locally.

Development Proposal Strathnaver Museum has appointed CH Architecture, supported by Oberlanders, WSD Cost Consultants, Fairhurst Structural & Civil Engineers, CDMM Building Services Engineers and Calum Maclean Conservation Architect to develop Strathnaver Museum as a new heritage hub for north Sutherland.

The Project will include the development of a masterplan, restoration of the existing building and creation of a new annex. The annex will house the agricultural and fishing exhibits and provide space for a temporary gallery to be used for workshops, artists in residence & seminars. The design proposal contained in this document aims to; • Illustrate a masterplan for the museum campus • Summarise key alterations which will improve the functionality of the museum particularly in relation to visitor flow and volunteer welfare • Identify refurbishment works which are essential to restore & prevent further decay of the existing building fabric • Include an outline design for the new annex which will provide a temporary exhibition and craft space and enable the larger agricultural and fishing exhibits to be relocated from the main gallery.

Design Approach As a general principle the design proposal will seek to improve the visitor experience and staff welfare facilities which are essential to the sustainability of the organisation but in doing so will aim to preserve as much of the surviving building fabric as possible.

Strathnaver Museum Design Report DRAFT 1 Site

Location The site is located behind the dunes of Farr Bay between the village of Bettyhill and Farr Bay Inn. The land slopes down to the Clachan Burn and A836 which is the main arterial road through the county. The majority of the land is owned by the Church of Scotland and leased to Highland Council who maintain the graveyard. Strathnaver Museum own the former church and are in the process of securing a lease for the site associated with the annex. The Museum is also in the process of taking over the cafe and tourist information centre which is located to the south of the museum beside the main road.

Establishing a Museum Campus Bringing the museum, cafe and tourist information point together under 8 one ownership will effectively create a Museum Campus and a noteworthy destination on the North Coast 500 route. 7

The parking area for the museum is located beside the cafe and provides 6 4 access to the museum via a pedestrian path. A separate carpark, serving the graveyard, is located to the north of the site. Museum volunteers tend to use the northern car park to reduce congestion by the main road but 6 the condition of the access road which passes the Farr Bay Inn is poor and 3 museum visitors are not encouraged to use this route.

There is an established pattern of walking between the cafe and museum and it would be entirely within the character of the site to locate a satellite building a short walk to the north east of the existing museum to house the agricultural & fishing collection.

The museum experience begins in the car park and extends across the site following a pedestrian route. 6 Minimising the Impact on the Existing Environment It should be noted that the museum masterplan will respect the continued 7 4 use of the graveyard and ensure that access to the graves and the agricultural use of the field, through which the access path passes, remains unaffected by museum traffic. 3 Strategic Signage & Wayfinding Improved roadside signage is essential to increase the visibility of the museum. On-site signage is also essential to improve navigation across the site. Signage is proposed at key points on the journey. No other work is proposed to the site with the exception of the immediate surroundings to the annex.

Given the exposure of the site and the strength of the winds, a robust, ground fixed signage system is proposed which takes its inspiration from the Farr stone in scale and proportion. The signs would be fabricated in 2 metal and affixed to concrete slabs located below ground level.

1881 Existing Layout As outlined on the previous page, the building users have identified the 1881 critical shortcomings of the existing building layout. 1976 The aim of this design proposal is to identify ways in which the problems with the existing layout can be improved with minimal impact on the majority of the historic fabric.

Given that the fabric of the building does not consistently date from 1770, it is helpful to understand which parts of the building post date the original 9. 5. construction. Research indicates that the alterations of 1881 included the 8. reduction of the main body of the church. The galleries were removed 10. and the end bays to the east and west were partitioned off through the introduction of masonry walls 11. 2. 1. The adjacent sketch plan illustrates the current layout of the building and 12. 6. 3. highlights, in coloured tone, the areas which are believed to be of later construction.

The pink tone identifies the two internal masonry partitions which were added in 1881.

4. The yellow tone identifies a timber frame and rubble infill partition which 7. is lined with wainscot panelling to the entrance but is exposed to the rear. This and the adjacent timber columns are also believed to date from the 1881 alterations.

The green tone indicates areas which were installed in 1976 when the building was converted to a museum.

The main alterations which are proposed for the building generally affect areas which are not part of the original construction.

There appears to be good justification to alter these areas particularly as Key the majority of the original fabric will remain untouched. 1. Entrance 2. Lobby 3. Hall & Retail Area 4. Office 5.

Strathnaver Museum Design Report DRAFT 6 Existing First Floor Layout

1881 Existing Layout A similar analysis has been carried out on the upper floor and the 1881 construction which post dates 1770 has been highlighted on the adjacent 1976 plan.

As identified in the analysis of the existing building, the space on the upper floor of the east wing is poorly used. The stair arrives at the furthest most point from the archive doors and floor area is lost to the attic and dark 6. 1. room stair. 5. 2. The ceiling over the first floor does not extend across the full area which means that any potential thermal properties associated with the structure 7. 4. are lost to the volume of the roof space. 8. The archive does not take full advantage of the floor space and the lobby area has become an overflow storage zone.

The dark room at the upper level appears to be redundant. The stair to the attic space is steep and not particularly safe. It should be pointed out that in the present arrangement, should anyone step on to the upper attic 3. there is a danger of falling between the joists. A fall from this height would be life threatening and access should be immediately suspended.

Thought needs to be given to the use of the upper attic. Although space is at a premium, the structure across the main gallery is not suitable for storage and vibrations are causing the lath and plaster to deteriorate. It would therefore be advisable to cease use of this upper area.

The platform above the archive space is of later construction and, with modification, could be altered and floored to be load bearing for future storage. It is proposed that access to this area, which would be infrequent, would be by means of a ramsay ladder within the archive space. This will ensure that access is restricted to those who have been inducted in the use of the ladder. Key The Mackay Centre, in the west wing, makes better use of the available 1. East Stair (Staff) floor space but is currently isolated from the rest of the museum and 2. WC suffers from extreme cold given the vast, uninsulated, roof space above. 3. Archive Not withstanding the cold, it is worth pointing out that the views of the 4. Stair to attic roof space offer a valuable insight into the construction of the building and 5.

Strathnaver Museum Design Report DRAFT 7 Proposed Ground Floor Layout Proposed Layout Rationalisation of the entrance sequence and improvement to the visitor flow, along with replacement of the welfare facilities and upgrading to the thermal envelope and heating, have been identified as the key objectives of the alterations.

The congested entrance and poor visitor flow can be improved by opening up the north wall of the entrance hall. This will enlarge the arrival space and create a more coherent and usable introduction area.

9. 5. With some adjustment to the structure of the first floor, the timber 8. columns will be removed and the north wall of the entrance hall opened 10. up to create a continuous space.

11. The stair will be turned around so that it will start in front of the window 1. which will ease visitor flow. It will also improve the layout at the first floor. 12. 6. 3. 2. Relocating the toilet to the ground floor and providing a unisex disabled WC will mean that access to the toilet will be unrestricted. A simple, compact tea point, contained within a cupboard, will provide adequate facilities for welfare and cleaning. Fire rated doors will be provided to this area so that the entrance hall may function as a protected lobby. 4. 7. The vestibule will be retained and the front door will be replaced with one which latches and closes tightly so as to control and reduce drafts.

The office will remain secure and separate but will be reorganised so that a genealogy study area can be accommodated. The remainder of the entrance space will be dedicated to interpretation panels and retail.

The open floor area will create a welcome gathering place and will establish a more generous and comfortable moment of arrival at the entrance to the museum.

Key The main hall will be largely untouched with the exception of new lighting 1. Entrance which would greatly improve the presentation of the exhibits. A new 2. Lobby bridge link will also be introduced and will be described on the following 3. Hall & Retail Area retail area page. 4. Office - Glazed screen with artwork 5. Welfare Area The lower gallery will also be improved through the provision of improved 6. Main Gallery lighting. A new ceiling will be installed and the masonry walls picked and 7. Pulpit re-pointed. The windows may be uncovered and high density, manual 8. Boat/house & Mural blinds added to ensure light levels are controlled. 9. Level Change Till 10.

West door genealogy stair in a protected enclosure which would be bulky and detrimental to the west galleries library Plan showing Strathnaver Museum visitor flow Design Report DRAFT 8 Proposed First Floor Layout Proposed Layout Following the principle of improving visitor flow, a new bridge link is Museum Experience proposed at the first floor between the west and east wings. Constructed Continues to Annex in steel and glass, to be as visually transparent as possible, the new bridge will enable a circular route to be taken through the museum which will transform the visitor experience. Entrance and exit will be via the east door enabling staffing to be focused at the reception during quieter periods. Secondary means of escape will be via the west door & stair. 6. 1. 2. The impact of this intervention in the historic fabric would be justified by the benefits brought about by the improvement to visitor flow and the ability to experience the pulpit from an elevated position which would 7. have been possible from the original galleries prior to the 1881 alterations. 5. 8. Step New bridge link 5. Views out A further benefit is that the inclusion of the bridge link will allow a second route of escape from each of the upper areas and may make it possible to remove the east external stair which was built in the 1970’s. Given that the stairs are currently subsiding and damaging the masonry walls by allowing water ingress around the cracked harling, it would be beneficial to 4. remove them both. We recommend the west stair is rebuilt to maintain a 3. secondary means of escape. The upper east doors could be replaced with a window which would let light into the gable. The main gallery would remain separated by a fire door at both floors. This arrangement is to be checked with building control.

First Floor The Mackay Centre in the west wing will remain largely as it is just now Option with the exception of an opening for the bridge link. The vaulted ceiling over the Mackay Centre provides a breath-taking insight into the elegant construction of the building and this will be retained and enhanced through better lighting. To improve the thermal properties of the space, the attic will be fully insulated below sarking level as recommended by the conservation consultant. To conceal the insulation the surface between the main rafters could be plasterboarded and painted white allowing the joinery of the roof to be made more visible. The masonry walls could be Key improved by picking and pointing the internal face which would remove the cement based mortar. 1. East Stair 2. Research Room As part of the works to the east wing, the archive will be increased in size 3. Enlarged Archive and a small research room will be created. The corridor in between, which 4.

West Stair 7. Mackay Centre With regards to the upper attic area, it is evident that the current informal 8. Mineral Collection use of the space over the main gallery is causing vibrations which are affecting the lath and plaster. It is therefore proposed that access to this area is suspended. As an alternative overflow storage area, the timber platform over the archive room will be extended across the full extent of the east area and access will be facilitated from within the archive by means of a ramsay ladder.

Strathnaver Museum Design Report DRAFT 12 New Annex - initial concept sketches The adjacent sketches illustrate the preferred proposal for the agricultural and fishing annex.

The site identified for the new annex, to the north east of the graveyard. sits between two listed buildings; the Strathnaver Museum and the Far Bay Inn. The proposal must therefore take cognisance of its setting and context. 2. The brief is to form a simple shed however the prominence of the site and the desire for the museum to be recognised as an exemplary volunteer run organisation demand that it is delivered to the highest standard and 5. provides a sustainable facility which could help generate future revenue.

A monopitch form has been chosen so that the building can take advantage 3. of the south facing aspect and appear to be built into the slope. It makes no attempt to replicate the museum building and, instead, complements it through its simple form. 4.

The entrance is recessed so that it is sheltered from the prevailing winds. Openings are minimal and a single large picture window is provided. The 1. first bay of the building would provide temporary exhibition space which, at times, could be used by an artist or craftsman in residence or for crafting workshops. It could also be considered as a lettable space for future revenue. The second and third bays could contain the permanent 6. exhibits including the cart, boat and threshing machines

Basic sanitary facilities have been incorporated so that the building can be used in a variety of ways. A small protected external area could be created between the boundary wall and the new building which could be used to display a few of the more hardy exhibits that are better suited to being viewed in an external environment.

A green roof could be considered to further embed the building into the landscape.

Strathnaver Museum Design Report DRAFT 13 New Annex - developed concept sketches The proposal has been developed to incorporate a covered outside space and a small enclosure which could accommodate an airsource heat pump. The design presents a solid elevation to the north in line with the existing graveyard wall and a more open elevation to the south which can be seed from the road.

The construction of the new annex will, however, need to be a church for many centuries. The church is recorded on all of the earliest considered. Initial studies indicate that the proposed site is not liable to maps dating back to the 16th Century with the site referred to as Farr flooding. There is evidence that the Clachan Burn does, from time to time, Kirk. The earliest written record of a church on this site dates from flood, however this is outwith the proposed development site and will not 1223. There are several chapel sites within Strathnaver that are known to impact on the development of the new annex. date from an earlier period, notably that chapel at Skaill dedicated to St Maelrubha that dates from 722 AD.

The area of Farr has been an area of importance since early Christian period. There is early monastic settlement on Eilean Neave at nearby Skerray that dates from the time of St Columba. The earlier church was reputedly known as St Columba’s Church, which is likely be a reference to this site. Track Given the historic activity associated with the site, an Archeologist will need to be appointed to carry out a desk top study of the site proposed for the new annex and will attend site to witness excavations.

A watching brief will be implemented throughout the works to address any potential finds on site. Extent of Site

Land owned by Church of SEPA Flood Risk Map Scotland The limited available space for the new annex and the requirement to include a kitchenette and toilet will require the introduction of a septic tank and soakaway.
