Protecting British History: Hochiki Europe Safeguards Magna Carta At Lincoln Castle
“ “ LINCOLN CASTLE As part of a £22 million restoration of Lincoln Castle, Hochiki Europe has been drafted in by Reflex Systems to provide the fire safety system that will guard the castle and its precious consignment – one of only four surviving, original 1215 Magna Carta. The Lincolnshire County Council site - which includes the 947 year old castle, perimeter wall and Victorian prison, as well as the new David P J Ross Magna Carta Vault - is the only location worldwide where the Magna Carta and its sister document, the Charter of the Forest (1217), can be viewed together. Four years of painstaking restoration has now been completed, ahead of Magna Carta’s 800th anniversary in June 2015.
