The New Town heritage Explorers Project is an exciting design and heritage project. It will develop a New Town Heritage toolkit and bring the city’s design heritage to life with an innovative creative programme.
The project will explore and document the social history of MK – the stories of the people who live here, the impact of the buildings on daily life, and what is it really like to live in a city built from scratch.
The project
The project will produce a heritage toolkit to enable local communities to:
Use the city’s archives to find out about the history of where they live,
Assess the city’s architectural and heritage character: what has worked well, and what not so well?
Put forward buildings that could go on the New Town Heritage Register, and
Shape the city’s future planning and growth.
The creative programme will involve children, young people and communities to animate the design heritage of the city through a series of innovative activities and events.
