Here’s your chance to Make Your Mark as Wentworth Woodhouse is restored to its former grandeur. Our Make Your Mark in History appeal aims to raise over £250,000 for the Wentworth Woodhouse Preservation Trust – and gives you the opportunity to follow in the footsteps of craftsmen who have worked at the grand house for over 200 years.

Running from November 2018 to May 2019, this series of seven lectures will inspire you with tales of hidden histories, secrets of world-class collections and stories of survival from some of your favourite stately homes, including Wentworth Woodhouse, Chatsworth House and Renishaw Hall. Find out more about your favourite places from the experts, including BBC Radio Sheffield’s Melvyn Jones, Chatsworth’s former head housekeeper Christine Robinson and Yorkshire country houses author Peter Brown.

The masterplan for Wentworth Woodhouse has been unveiled at a reception at Downing Street, which sets out the vision for the future of this grand house and estate. A great deal of work is going into making the house structurally sound, improving accessibility, developing the visitor offer and events, building a retail and catering offer, and so much more. The ambitious £150 million plan sets out the future for Wentworth Woodhouse as a world-class visitor attraction, wedding venue, retail and catering destination, holiday accommodation, and thriving hub for the local community. The masterplan is available on our website for all to read, alongside our business review for 2018.
