Restoration Update – 19.01.20

After over 10 years of great service by our Cafe carpets, the wear and tear has begun to show so works have begun to install an exact replica of the original design carpets that were put in during our 2009 restoration which in turn were an exact replica of the carpets installed in 1932.

With the careful dismantling of the paybox and removal of the Cafe’s Lloyd Loom furniture the broad sweep of the Cafe which interestingly is an exact match of the performance space of our stage was revealed ready for the local Bramley Carpet installers to commence their work.

The designs for the carpet were painstakingly studied to ensure colour hues and style of the original opening day carpet were achieved and once completed our new carpets will bring back the elegant clean lines of the stylish floor coverings which create such a beautiful Cafe environment.
