* Experience Barnsley – The creation of the Barnsley People's Museum and Archives Centre.

This project has been awarded almost £ 3m of funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund, which means two floors of Barnsley's distinctive Town Hall will be transformed into state-of-the-art museum galleries, the first devoted to the borough's stories, past and present.

This is estimated to be completed by June 2013.

* Barnsley College A Block was completed and opened in September 2011.
