Greenhouse Restoration
Regular visitors to Escot Park, near Ottery St Mary, have been watching with interest as the second phase of the Greenhouse Restoration Project nears completion.
Repairs to the structural timberwork are now complete and re-glazing is scheduled to take place in May.
Escot's General Manager, Robin Savill said "This is a fine example of a Victorian Messenger's greenhouse, originally designed to include a Peach House, Stove House and Vinery and it is so exciting to see it being restored to its former glory. Local company Build Care Plus has made a superb job of restoring the timberwork and it's nice to know that future generations will now have the chance to appreciate this beautiful building."
The completion of this phase marks the project's halfway point. With two sections of the 100ft building still in need of restoration, it will be a while yet before the full splendour of this Victorian gem is restored.
