SM&AG: Work Starts in Major Step

 Good news re work beginning to the fabric of the Civic Offices to convert the first floor into the new Swindon Museum and Art Gallery in a press release this week which can be read here. Friends were asked for a quote which appears in the article. We will keep everyone informed via emails and this blog about progress being made towards opening Swindon Museum and Art Gallery in the Civic Offices.

Swindon Advertiser reporter Aled Thomas wrote the piece and ended it with this sentence: 'Work is expected until at least summer 2024'. This seemed a bit unclear, but maybe it's Aled's interpretation. I'm also unsure why the first floor of the Civic Offices is referred to as the second floor.
