约克郡著名历史遗迹克利福德塔的保护与修复工作已于近日完工，项目由Hugh Broughton建筑事务所与英格兰历史建筑和古迹委员会共同负责，并已于2022年4月2日向公众开放。在与遗迹保护专家Martin Ashley建筑事务所的紧密合作下，Hugh Broughton事务所除了对克利福德塔进行了修复外，还进一步改善了遗迹内部的空间质量，大大提升了游客们的参观体验。

Hugh Broughton Architects and English Heritage’s project to safeguard the future of Clifford’s Tower in York has completed, and will open to the public on 2 April 2022. The project, which was designed by Hugh Broughton Architects working with conservation specialists Martin Ashley Architects, includes vital conservation works as well as architectural improvements which enhance the visitor experience.

克利福德塔坐落于“征服王”威廉一世于1068年建造的土丘之上。几个世纪以来，它一直是约克城堡的要塞和主要军事据点。起初，克利福德塔是一座木塔，1190年，约克城堡最臭名昭著的历史事件于此处发生，当时，在这座塔中避难的大批约克犹太人不幸死亡。此后不久，石塔建成并被当作国库和皇家金库使用。17世纪，一场大火摧毁了塔的内部，建筑被夷为平地。随后，塔所在的土丘也被削减，并在周围建造了一堵巨大的挡土墙。直到1935年，土丘低处的斜坡才得以重建。

Clifford’s Tower crowns the earthwork mound raised by William the Conqueror in 1068. For centuries it was the keep and chief strongpoint of York Castle. At first, there was a timber tower here, where the most notorious event in the history of the castle took place in 1190, when the Jews of York, who had taken refuge in the tower, died in tragic circumstances. The stone tower was built soon afterwards and was used as a treasury and royal exchequer. In the 17th century a fire destroyed the interior of the tower and the building was reduced to a shell. The mound at Clifford’s Tower was later cut back and a large retaining wall was built around it. In 1935, the lower slopes of the mound were reconstructed.

除了历史建筑的保护工作外，本项目还涉及了一系列改造工程，核心旨在以充满敏感性的设计语言为塔内空间赋予一个鼓舞人心的新形象。在广泛的公众参与下，设计方案以一个全新的木制平台为特色，该平台位于塔的顶端，由四根高耸的木柱支撑，并将一部分遗迹隐藏了起来。木制平台上设有圆形露天剧场与座位区，可供团体活动使用。

In addition to conservation works to the historic fabric, the project has made a series of improvements to the tower, with a particular focus on creating an inspiring and sensitively- designed interpretation scheme within the tower. Developed through an extensive process of public consultation, the design scheme features a new timber deck which partially covers the ruin and is supported on four soaring timber columns.

通过对土丘上现有的楼梯进行改进，游客们如今可以更加便捷地进入塔内。建筑师在楼梯上共设计了三处休憩平台，为人们提供了放缓节奏、坐下休憩、停留观景的场所。此外，建筑师还在土丘脚下开辟了一块全新的公共空间，该空间融合了信息介绍与向导功能，这里停有一辆英国传统品牌的皮亚乔人力三轮车用于出售门票和旅游指南，这种设置使位于地面层的游客们与该历史名胜产生互动，包括那些由于某些原因而无法登上塔顶的人们。

Access to the tower has been enhanced through improvements to the existing stair up the motte. Three resting places have been created, allowing people to pull off to the side of the stair, pause, and sit down. A newly enlarged public area at the base of the motte incorporates interpretation, accommodates an English Heritage-branded Piaggio tuk-tuk (auto rickshaw) for the sale of tickets and guidebooks, and offers a ground level place to engage with visitors, including those unable to ascend to the tower.

在塔的内部，一系列轻便的走道悬吊在平台的支撑结构上，走道建成后，曾经神秘的底层空间揭开了自己神秘的面纱，此外，人们还可以通过修复后的两处箭塔登上塔顶平台。入口处的教堂也得到了修复，老旧的石雕被清理干净，腐朽的木制支撑结构被移除，教堂屋顶也被修复并重新铺上了粘土瓦。

The deck includes amphitheatre seating for group activity, with a series of lightweight walkways suspended from its structure which gives access to previously unseen first floor features and doubles the access to the roof level through restoration of two bartizan vices. The chapel has also been restored, with stonework cleaned, unsightly timber bracing removed, and the roof repaired and re-clad in clay tiles.

HB事务所创始人Hugh Broughton说：“能够与英格兰历史建筑和古迹委员会合作，为约克郡进行如此重大的项目，我们感到非常荣幸。我们很高兴看到克利福德塔如今可以开启它璀璨的新篇章。整个项目团队通力合作，共同努力交付了这样一个卓越的项目。现有的历史建筑结构得到了精心的保护，全新的向导区向游客全面介绍了与塔有关的故事，并向人们展示出更广阔的城堡范围。木制平台与悬挂的步道改善了空间的可达性，向游客揭示了从未对外开放的历史建筑结构，改造后的屋顶平台则为克利福德塔增添了浓墨重彩的一笔，同时也为游客们提供了一处能够悠闲地欣赏约克郡壮丽景色的场所。”

Hugh Broughton, Director, Hugh Broughton Architects, said: “It has been a special privilege to work with English Heritage on such a significant project for the City of York, and we are thrilled that the Tower can now enjoy the next chapter in its rich and varied life. The entire project team has worked so collaboratively and so hard to deliver a project of excellence. The existing fabric has been carefully conserved, and enhanced interpretation introduces visitors to the many stories associated with the tower and the wider castle precincts. The timber deck and suspended walkways improve access, introduce visitors to previously unseen historic fabric, allow more time for people to enjoy the spectacular views of York and complement the special character of Clifford’s Tower.”
