Job Summary
Job Description
Calverley is a historic village situated between Leeds and Bradford. Referenced as far back as the 11th century in the Domesday Book, it has many historic buildings and areas of interest, including Calverley Old Hall.
The village is home to an active local history society who are extremely knowledgeable about the history and heritage of Calverley and the surrounding area.
We would like to create a short walking trail which can be used by locals and visitors to the village, including those staying at Calverley Old Hall, in order to highlight some of the fascinating history that the village has to offer.
The final output will be hosted on the Landmark Trust website, with a printable option, to facilitate different users requirements.
Further information
The Landmark Trust and the local history society together should have existing research which will facilitate the development of the trail. So additional requirements for further research will be limited. The main requirement of this role is to analyse the existing research, collate it and re-interpret it into an engaging walking trail format.
Anyone can apply for the commission, however we particularly welcome freelancers from the Leeds and Bradford area.
Budget
The following budget has been outlined for the project:
Professional Fees (design and production) – up to £2500
Professional Fees (audio production) – up to £1500
Materials and equipment (including any printing costs)- Up to £500
A small budget is also available to help with any copyright required for material (images etc) to be included in the trail.
Job Requirements
Practitioners responding to this opportunity should carefully consider how the proposed output can align with the Landmark Trust’s priority to deliver high quality, creative heritage interpretation which is widely accessible.
The trail should:
-
Be visually attractive in line with the Landmark Trusts brand guidelines
-
Be user friendly and easy to navigate
-
Be able to be used on a mobile device or web browser
-
Include audio instructions/audio description of the route
-
Have a printable version
-
Use the principles of Universal Design
We are looking for a freelancer who:
Has an interest in history and/or historic buildings
Is happy to visit and gather research on the local area
Is confident to work independently
Is happy to liaise with the history society directly
Has experience of working on similar projects
Has experience with working with varied audiences, particularly community groups
