A phased programme of repairs is being undertaken to the Grade I listed building for Lord Carnarvon. Highclere Castle itself was designed by Sir Charles Barry whilst the greater estate contains numerous listed structures by other notable architects in various states of repair. Extensive surveys and condition reports have been undertaken on the numerous listed structures including follies, residences, stable blocks, an historic aisled barn and various garden structures. This revealed extensive repair works are required throughout the estate. An enabling development, split across several discreet sites, is proposed to help fund these repairs. Fabric repairs to Highclere Castle have included renewal of defective lead and slate roofs together with stone and render repairs. Works have also been undertaken within the cellarage to extend and improve the existing Egyptology and Equestrian exhibition areas.
