Restoration Rescue S01E02 - Episode 2

Across Northern Ireland our landscape is scattered with buildings falling into ruin but thankfully there are people out there on a mission to bring them back to life.

Patrick Bradley is in the seaside village of Donaghadee to meet a couple who have ambitious plans to transform a disused high street bank into a modern home fit for 21st century living.

Spanning three floors, turning this listed building from a commercial property into a liveable space is a mammoth undertaking, including the challenge of figuring out what to do with the original walk-in safe.

Patrick finds out how the bank came to be established in the village and how banking has evolved over the last 100 years. He also meets with the last couple to live and work in the bank over 40 years ago.

This is a big property with big potential and a couple hoping to reimagine what the high street could be.
