Manningtree to Restore Chromeburry Hall
By Richard Evert
While many marvel at the modern and the new, residents of Manningtree find beauty in all things classical. This explains why this small town in England is now engaging in a massive effort to restore the glory of its vintage structures.
A team of local architects, called the Green Construction Society (GCS), is in partnership with the local government to reconstruct historical buildings in the area. After successfully restoring the Arc Cathedral and other buildings last year, the society is now preparing to refurbish Chromeburry Hall.
“Last year’s project inspired us to work on the music hall,” GCS President Samuel Morse said. “We can’t wait to start working again.”
Chromeburry Hall, a 300-year-old concert hall located on Courtney Street, used to be a popular venue for operas and orchestra shows until the 1930s. During that time, the walls and ceilings of the building had started to deteriorate, making it unsafe for use. Since it was more expensive to restore the music hall than build a new venue, the government decided to close the building and construct the Atlas Theater.
The GCS and the government hope to turn the abandoned structure into a music museum. However, Morse said much work has yet to be done, and the society is in need of more volunteers.
“Any form of help would go a long way,” Morse said. “We hope our fellow citizens will join us in this endeavor.”
Residents interested in volunteer work may log on to the society’s Web site, www.gcsociety.com, to learn more about the project. - What is the main topic of the article?
