Dorset Museum NOW OPEN!

We are delighted to announce that at 9am today, Dorset Museum will reopen their doors to the public and welcome visitors for the first time since 2018.

After a monumental effort from everyone involved, the Museum will finally get to unveil the stunning transformation this historic site has seen over the last 3 years. 

Acheson Construction feel incredibly fortunate to have been given the unique opportunity to deliver such an iconic local project. 

We would like to say a heartfelt thank you and congratulations to Dan Coniam and his team, Jon Murden and all the Museum staff, MDA, PGP, Boon Brown, GAP and our supply chain partners for your dedication and commitment to this outstanding project.

This has been a fantastic journey and a project of which we are immensely proud. 

We would like to wish our friends at Dorset Museum the very best of luck for the future and this exciting new chapter.
