The Friends of St.
Mary's exists to secure the future
of this historic house and its contents, together with its extensive
gardens so that the house, together with its remaining gardens, can
continue to be enjoyed by the many thousands of visitors annually.
Since its formation in 1991, the Friends have been instrumental in
raising funds for restoration projects through membership subscriptions
and organising events and functions. The projects supported
include:
 |
the installation of a shutting window |
|
reinstatement of the blocked-up window in the east
facade |
|
display cases for the
collections held at St. Mary's |
|
the rebuilding of the
main Music Room
window |
|
a new
Music Room roof |
|
New
bookshelves designed by Roger Linton
for the Music Room. |
| Restoration of the Victorian Glass
House |
However, restoration work is an ongoing task, and your help is
urgently needed! |
