1 Museum Street, York

We’re proud to share that Pinnacle Conservation has been appointed as the main contractor for the next chapter in the life of 1 Museum Street, York.

This Grade II listed building, designed by Rawlins Gould in 1860, has served many roles—from the city’s register office to a Conservative Club, council offices, and most recently, York’s tourist information centre. Its architectural character—orange brick, stone dressings, sash windows, Doric pilasters, and a sweeping staircase—tells a story of pride and evolving purpose.

Our upcoming works will sensitively enhance and adapt the building for future use, including:

• New internal openings and partitions
• Alterations to existing layouts
• Refurbishment of original timber windows and doors
• Installation and restoration of joinery, skirting, and secondary glazing
• Redecoration, repairs, and new flooring
• A new mezzanine structure and balustrades

We’re honoured to be entrusted with this historic space in the heart of York and look forward to delivering a scheme that respects its legacy while enabling new possibilities.
