Small Works
Small works are projects up to £200,000 construction cost. They are called small works because a simpler form of contract is often used to administer the building operation. Despite the name, these are significant sums of money. All budgets must be managed carefully.
Thirsk is a market town and civil parish in North Yorkshire, England; it is known for its racecourse, quirky yarn bombing displays and depiction as local author James Herriot's fictional Darrowby.
Archeological finds indicate there was a settlement in Thirsk around 500–600 BC. The town's name is derived from the Old Norse word þresk meaning fen or lake.
Thirsk is mentioned twice in the 1086 Domesday Book as Tresche, in the Yarlestre wapentake, a village with ten households. At the time of the Norman invasion the manor was split between Orm and Thor, local Anglo-Saxon landowners. Afterwards, it was split between Hugh, son of Baldric and the Crown.
