    Dear James, There are some companies that produce artwork on noise reducing material - so they look like artwork, but act like accoustic dampening. They work quite well. Alternatively, you could consider accoustic plaster. It works like regular plaster for walls or ceilings, but absorb and diverge sound. We have it at our current office, which is a building of similar age and 'ye olde-eness'. I will recommend.
