Client: Poltimore House Trust
Poltimore is a Grade II* listed building and the Poltimore House project has been gaining momentum, but its vision and objects have not changed from those when the Trust was set up in January 2000 as a charity and a Building Preservation Trust.
Charitable objects:
‘To preserve for the benefit of the people of Devon and nation at large the building of special and architectural and historic interest known as Poltimore House in the County of Devon and its grounds and setting and any adjoining land or buildings which formed part of the Poltimore Estate.’
Once the works start the Estate will continue to use its offices in an adjoining building and the public will continue to visit around the building and so the access road and paths will continue to be in use by others. So suitable steps are to be provided and maintained to ensure the protection of all the Estates workforce & visitors.
