Woolwich historic building used by Punchdrunk to be renovated

A building on the Royal Arsenal site is to see renovations as new plans submitted.

Building 17 is used by Punchdrunk and will see work undertaken to improve various areas of the structure including:

• Erection of scaffolding to the main elevation.
• Repair and redecoration of the windows.
• Application of privacy film to the upper level windows.
• Repair and redecoration of the hoppers and downpipes.
• Isolated brick and stone repairs.

The building was formerly part of the Firepower museum which closed some years ago.

It then became part of the Woolwich Works project with occupation by theatre company Punchdrunk who have held performance of The Burnt City onsite.

The building was given Grade II listed status in 1997.

Details of the application can be seen here.

 

As a private renter living costs are very high and ads bring in relatively little to the site. I run it alone, and you can support me through Paypal with a one-off or monthly donation here
