Restoration work started last year as the woodwork at the front of the High Street building was rotten and Viking Restoration moved in on Monday, September 8, to renew the old frame.
The property owned by Nailsea Town Council is a health and well-being centre especially for those seeking advice and support.
IOriginally a butchers shop the contractors have revealed very faint lettering which says F. Griffiths.
Their traditional, family business based in Glastonbury with a shop in Wells of that name but nothing is revealed by Google for Nailsea.
When Avon County Council was our administrative centre 65 High Street was the area youth office and was known at Youth House.
There is still a youth club running upstairs called T65.
But for a while now is have been the town centre community hub for the town council.
The work was expected to take a week but the finishing touches were completed this week.
And we can report No65 is looking great.
Super duper paint job with artistic graphics.
Creative window designer Tom Rowles came up with the concept and as part of Gould Autoplates and Signs Ltd the team from Blackfriars Road did the window graphics installation.




No65 has smart new look

GOING BATTY
Nailsea residents are being encouraged to take part in an important conservation project that plays a vital role in protecting local bat populations. Now in its fourth year, the North Somerset Bat Survey continues to build a detailed picture of bat activity across the region, helping to inform biodiversity conservation efforts and development planning decisions year on year. Led by North Somerset Council, the survey is a collaborative initiative coordinated by the University of Bath’s Bat Conservation Research Lab. The project which runs until October is funded by The National Lottery Heritage Fund, with thanks to National Lottery players. The survey aims to improve understanding of how bats use the landscape, the habitats they depend on, and use this data to support sustainable development across North Somerset.
