The iconic Victorian Brunel Engine Shed outside the railway station in High Wycombe had been derelict and dilapidated for many years.
That was until the former Wycombe District Council stepped in and bought the historic Grade II* listed structure to breathe new life into the building and the surrounding area.
After carefully considering a range of uses for the restored building from prospective tenants, Buckinghamshire Council has now signed an agreement with Buckinghamshire New University.
The university has exciting plans to use Brunel Engine Shed as home to a café and gallery space, which will be open to the public and to provide workspace for entrepreneurs and start-up businesses spinning out of the university.
