Work has started at Alford Manor House

By March 18, 2025No Comments
The Programme of improvement works is now underway at Alford Manor House! Thanks to Government funding secured by East Lindsey District Council, works have started on site which will help preserve the heritage and expand the uses of this important attraction in Alford.

Following the approval of planning and listed building consent last year, works are now starting to happen on site. Once complete, there will be a new permanent function space to extend its uses all year round. The scheme also includes relocating the kitchen and toilets as well as other improvements. The first task is the installation of new, efficient radiators.

They will help reduce the running costs at the Manor House and ensure it is a warmer environment for all.

“We are all very pleased that the improvement works at the Manor House have now started. The first job has been the replacement of the electric storage heaters in the House which had come to the end of their useful lives. ”

“The new Dimplex electric heaters that have been installed, which can be controlled either individually or by way of a networked system, will be much more efficient and cost effective than the old ones. Electric will only be used when and where it is needed which should significantly reduce our heating costs.”
