“This is a great local project for us to<br />

be a part of where we can utilise our<br />

heritage skills and expertise.”<br />

Historic England’s Peter Barlow said:<br />

“<strong>Hopwood</strong> Hall is a very special<br />

building and we are glad to have<br />

helped fund this important next stage<br />

in repair works. Restoring this fragile<br />

building requires patience and<br />

expertise, so we’re pleased that<br />

Rosslee’s many years of experience will<br />

be used on this part of the project.”
