A dilapidated late 17th century, Grade II* listed property with fine staircases and panelled rooms. It was acquired from the Borough Council, the ground floor having been let as the Tourist information Centre. Repairs were carried out by the Trust when it acquired the building. The property was returned to a single dwelling and the restoration was competed by the purchaser.

Completed: 2016.
Architect: David Mizon.

In 2010 the Trust, in collaboration with the Bury Society and the Borough Council, assisted with the repairs to the Grade II Listed terra cotta Blanchard planter (1874) in St Mary’s Square.

This property, now called The Maltings, was bought by the Borough Council who were unable to find anyone to take over the derelict site. A feasibility study for Age Concern indicated a cost of £2.5m for conversion to a Day Centre. The Trust suggested a lower cost scheme but, although a Heritage Lottery grant of £802,000 was offered, the charity withdrew as it was under pressure to find a quicker solution. At the same time (2004), St Matthew Housing was seeking a town centre office and the old maltings offered both office space and a site to the rear for five new flats, two of which were specially designed for the disabled. The Trust worked closely with The Maltings Project until completion. The final cost was £1.45m.

Completed: 2004.
Architects: John Abbott and Malcolm Lowe.

Formerly a motor cycle showroom with workshop to the rear. The premises had been given consent for demolition and office redevelopment. The Trust purchased the property after a series of developers had defaulted, and constructed three self-contained shops with three flats above on the street elevation. In addition, four new dwellings were constructed to the rear on the former workshop space.

Completed: 1998.
Architects: Richard Scales and Ralph Carpenter.

In co-operation with the Trustees of the Unitarian Church, the Bury Society, the Borough Council and English Heritage, the Meeting House was restored in 1991.
