    Brief

    Cumberland Council is seeking a qualified contractor to perform planned remedial works on Dixon's Chimney, a Grade II listed structure approximately 85 meters high located in Carlisle. Following a Condition Survey completed in July 2025, urgent Health and Safety works have been identified and partially completed. The project requires an experienced contractor capable of working on high-rise heritage structures to address structural integrity issues and ensure public safety. This is a significant conservation project requiring specialist knowledge of historic industrial chimneys and working at height. Contractors should demonstrate relevant experience with similar heritage restoration projects, appropriate safety certifications, and the ability to manage complex technical requirements associated with tall masonry structures.
