Heritage Trust for the North West / Heritage Trust North West is a registered Building Preservation Trust, established in 1978 as a charity and company.〔http://www.charitiesdirect.com/charities/heritage-trust-for-the-north-west-508300.html〕 Formerly known as the ''Lancashire Heritage Trust'', it has rescued and restored many buildings of architectural interest at risk in Lancashire. In 1996 Lancashire Heritage Trust merged with the ''North West Buildings Preservation Trust'' which had similar aims and enlarged its remit to cover the North West of England, a requirement of the Charity Commission.〔http://www.htnw.co.uk/leaflets/HTNWProjectsv5.pdf〕 Subsequently the trust has developed projects in Manchester, Liverpool and Cumbria. The aim of the trust is to restore and find new and appropriate uses for historic buildings and encourage good design and craftsmanship. It has retained some of the buildings it has restored to provide funding for further projects. Others are open to the public forming a network of historic places. Up to October 2006 the trust's headquarters were in Barrowford, a building which is now the Pendle Heritage Centre, founded in 1977, and one of the trust's flagship projects. The heritage centre attracts over 100,000 visitors a year. Since October 2006 the trust's headquarters are at Higherford Mill, a Grade II listed building owned by the trust and restored as a centre for creative industries.. ==Buildings within the Trust== The trust is involved with projects and buildings including: 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Heritage Trust for the North West」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
