A UNIQUE, CHARMING AND ARCHITECTUALLY
SIGNIFICANT BUILDING IN THE HEART OF SUDBURY PARISH
The Old Gasworks, Sudbury, was built in 1874 and was designed by George Devey, a noted architect of the time. Gas was produced from coal and piped to Sudbury Hall as well as many houses in the village. The gasholder was dismantled in the 1930s and the building now stands empty, with noticeable deterioration.
A COMMUNITY REPONDS
In 2013, volunteers from the village formed Sudbury Gasworks Restoration Trust (SGRT), a building preservation trust, which aims to save the building and adapt it to serve the community once again.
