We acquired the property in 2005 and general refurbishments and re-ordering, fitting out and internal redecoration were carried out in that year, following on from some modernisation carried out by previous owners some time before. When we acquired the property the original c1865 roofs remained and the pitched roofs were unfelted. In 2015 all pitched roofs were stripped and felted with modern materials, and re-roofed using the original mix of high quality Delabole and Welsh natural slates. At the same all the original Victorian leadwork associated with the roof was replaced in new lead in line with modern good practice and model specifications, including the flat valley sections accessible via the second floor Velux roof window which replaced the original Victorian laylight. The original lead flat roof to the Entrance Porch was also replaced with a modern composite sheet system with a longer design life than roofing felt. While the property was scaffolded for roofing work the house was redecorated externally, including windows.
