This talk, organised by Europa Nostra UK and given by Paul Smith, will take a look at a selection of industrial and engineering sites throughout Europe, some of them—bridges, railway stations and a handful of factories—still in use, others transformed into museums and destinations for a great day out. Most however are former industrial buildings saved by adaptive re-use, the conversion of the built fabric to accommodate new, non-industrial uses. Most of the sites received the European Heritage Awards / Europa Nostra Awards as ‘outstanding achievements in the conservation, enhancement and adaptation to new uses of cultural heritage’.
