CPU 7273 - Green's Windmill MEND Repair Programme - Conservation Build
Authority: Nottingham City Council (Local council)
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionThe Authority would like to appoint a Main Contractor to deliver a programme of repairs and
restoration to return Green's Mill to working condition.
Green's Mill is a Grade 2 listed heritage site built by Mr Green in 1807. His son, George
Green, a celebrated mathematician inherited the Mill but after his death in 1841 it fell rapidly
into disrepair.
Acquired by Nottingham City Council in 1985 it was restored as a working Windmill along
with construction of new buildings to form a Science Centre where visitors can discover the
importance of Green's Theorem.
Due to decay in the cap frame and issues with deterioration, the sails were removed in 2022.
The cap has difficulty turning due to various alignment issues, including the fantail pinion at
the curb popping out of gear; it has had such problems for some time.
The freehold is held by Nottingham City Council and the site is operated (including public facing) by Green's Mill Trust on behalf of Nottingham City Council.
The project is grant funded by the Museum Estate and Development Fund [MEND] which is
managed by Arts Council England.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
