As part of ongoing works to reimagine the wider Wentworth estate, they led a conservation project to restore and revitalise the Grade II*-listed Georgian building. The project has recently been recognised with a Europa Nostra Award – one of Europe’s most prestigious heritage awards. Join Dorian to hear more about the restoration and its process.
