In 2020, Bassetlaw Council chiefs confirmed a ‘local business owner’ had bought Bracebridge Pumping Station and planned to ‘sympathetically convert’ the iconic building for new use.

It comes after conservation campaigners The Victorian Society announced that the 1880s’ structure was on its top 10 most-endangered list.

The organisation publishes the list every year - to highlight ‘at-risk heritage all over the country in the hope of finding new solutions’.
