The Repair, Restore, Renovate Appeal Fund (RRR)
Funds to Repair, Restore and Renovate the vital infrastructure of Great Dixter are urgently needed.
The maintenance and preservation on a site such as Great Dixter has a multitude of ongoing needs: from a leak in the roof of the House to the complete renovation of the Wagon Lodge (image below). Donations are required now to fund repairs.
Throughout the Estate there are many Grade Listed buildings and we have been carefully inspecting them for restoration, repairs and maintenance. This process has highlighted areas of the Main House, the Long Barn and the Cart Shed as priorities. Over the past 2 months we have been working very closely with our Heritage Consultant, Conservation Architect and Timber Frame Joiners to agree a sympathetic restoration-based approach of these iconic buildings. There is a need to be aware of the Grade Listed status and work in harmony with the overall aesthetic of the Estate. The process of creating a structured 5-year programme that will closely monitor the needs of the buildings is well underway.
