About

Derbyshire County Council awarded a contract to AMION Consulting Limited for an options appraisal and feasibility study for a visitor centre at the North and East Mills site in Belper, part of the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site (DVMWHS).

The study investigated, evaluated, and reported on options for a visitor centre focused on the heritage, stories, and offer of the DVMWHS Central Hub, while communicating and engaging people with the site's Outstanding Universal Value.

The feasibility assessment covered capital and revenue costs, organisational requirements, and skills needed for successful establishment and sustainable running.

The contract was valued at AUD 40,000 and formed part of the 'Old Spaces, Creative Futures' activity under the DVMWHS Great Place Scheme, a £1.4m jointly funded National Lottery Heritage Fund and Arts Council England programme.
