Storing Heritage Items

Bishop’s Castle Heritage Resource Centre provides the community with secure museum standard storage. Shelf space within this large heritage repository is available for rent, providing depositors with a safe, controlled environment in which to store artefacts and documents. Depositors will be securing their heritage collections for the future and will also be making a significant contribution towards this unique community-based charity.

Who can use the store?

Private individuals, local community groups and government or commercial organisations can all store items at Bishop’s Castle Heritage Resource Centre. We are a voluntary body, so are not tied to local government boundaries and have no fixed geographical or historical limits. If your items have a local heritage connection we will consider them.

What will it cost?

Storage charges are calculated on a standard shelf (0.25 cubic metre volume), currently £25 per annum. Depositors taking up to half this space will incur the minimum charge - currently £12.50 per annum.
