Cllr Muir with Contemporary Goldsmith Eddie Doherty |
Eddie's studio is part of Holywood Old School, a historic listed building restored a few years ago and now under the ownership of Holywood Old School Preservation Trust.
The sustainable use of this building is a fantastic example of how listed buildings in disrepair can be given a new lease of life with the hall used for many purposes such as Scout meetings, Birthday parties and Community group meetings whilst also accommodating Eddie's studio and an Apartment.
The range of items created by Eddie and the amazing creativity shown is extremely impressive. Many items are specially made for individual clients and thus are extra special.
In the tough economic times we are currently experiencing businesses such as Eddie's should be encouraged and supported, enabling a creative sustainable economy.
