 Worksop business given new lease of life with funding from The National Lottery Heritage Fund and Bassetlaw District Council.
The building occupied by family-run furniture business Eyres of Worksop, on the corner of Westgate, has been brought back to its former glory following a ten-month restoration.
Work included sympathetically restoring the façade, replacing old brickwork, erecting new signage, and creating elevated display areas. The transformation is one part of Bassetlaw District Council’s Townscape Heritage Initiative, which was allocated £1,350,200 from The National Lottery Heritage Fund.

 A new high-definition CCTV camera is up and running as part of ongoing efforts to prevent antisocial car cruisers causing misery for local residents by racing along a stretch of the A57 at Worksop.
The 4G camera, which has a high zoom function capability, will enable police to access live footage and capture evidence of offences being committed, making it easier to prosecute drivers who flout the law.
The device, which has been provided by Bassetlaw District Council to support the Police, has been installed as an added measure to prevent and reduce antisocial behaviour in the area which has been a persistent cause of concern for local residents.
