In August, we typically close for conservation and maintenance works for the Hall, which is a scheduled monument and grade-II listed building. A few years ago, the works included refreshing and repairing the drawing room wallpaper. Hand-painted and dating from the late 18th/ early 19th century, the wallpaper was bought as part of the post-Second World War restoration. The wallpaper, being as precious and delicate as it is, is not attached to the walls, but to boards on the walls to allow for their regular refresh.
