## Description

Tenders are invited to undertake a review of an options appraisal study prepared in 2010 to establish a long term sustainable future for Winstanley Hall, its stable block and outbuildings\. Winstanley Hall is located within Winstanley Park, \(NGR 5443303095\), approximately three miles south west of Wigan town centre\. The site comprises various designated heritage assets\. These include the Grade II\* Listed hall, the separately Grade II\* Listed stable block/barn and Grade II Listed Fountain and Estate Office\. The hall dates to c\.1595 when the Bankes family took ownership of the estate\. It has been subject to various alterations and enlargements over the centuries, most notably in the early 19th century when the architect, Lewis Wyatt, reconfigured the interior and relocated the main entrance to the south west\. It is also thought that Lewis Wyatt was instrumental in the design of the stable block and associated buildings\. Unoccupied since the early 1980s, the hall has been in a seriously declining condition for many years\. Heritage Works was appointed in 2010 to produce an options appraisal for the site\. This tender opportunity seeks to identify a provider to carry out a review of options 1-7 set out in the Heritage Works Options Appraisal Study \(May 2010\) to assess the deliverability of each in the current climate\. An appraisal shall also be made of SAVE Britain's Heritage strategy for the site produced in February 2012 \(SAVE will be available for interview about their proposal\)\. Any additional options deemed to be worthy of further exploration shall be identified and assessed\. The appraisal of each option shall include an assessment of repair costs, conversion costs and indicative end values for each option, leading to the identification of any financial gap\. As part of the analysis, consideration should be given to different funding options \(including enabling development\), ownership models and planning considerations\. In order to ensure that the appraisal is based on up-to-date information, the following discrete elements of work will need to be undertaken: Condition survey; Conversion costs and market evaluation appraisal; Exploration of funding options; Ownership model analysis; Review of Significance; Planning constraints/opportunities; and, Security/access\.
