Restoration of the Mushet Ironworks in Coleford. (General)

The BBC has recently covered the fact that old Mushet iron works (Dark Hill and Titanic sites) in Coleford are being given a grant to enable them to be restored. Here's the link to it:http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-gloucestershire-23095114

For those who have ancestors who were connected with Mushet's iron works (which includes me!) this is very interesting. I would appreciate having some feedback as to the progress being made once the restoration is under way and whether any visitor centre will be established and if it might feature people who worked there. Many thanks in advance of any replies.
