The restoration and adaptation of Hounslow’s Grade I listed Jacobean Mansion will create a vibrant, engaging hub for both community and visitors and remove the house from the heritage at risk register. The HLF funded project, led by Purcell, involves the highly specialised restoration of each room and its details, creating a series of event spaces, new visitor facilities, improved accessibility, and environmental and operational upgrades to the historic fabric. Detailed research of its significance has unlocked the building’s capacity for change – creating for it a robust, sustainable future.
