The former Royal Ordnance Depot at Weedon Bec, Northamptonshire, was built from 1803 to store gunpowder and firearms when it was realised that Napoleon would capture most of the nations supplies if he invaded.

Following extensive research, which has been included in the adopted Conservation Plan, we are currently involved in surveying, recording and assisting Holder Mathias Architects with proposals for the repair and reuse of the buildings, all of which are individually or curtilage listed Grade II*.

Planning permission and listed building consent have already been obtained for a new Fire Service National Museum within several of the buildings on the site.
