This conservatory was built in 1855 and was well-kept for decades. However after the property was sold after WWII, the conservatory fell into disrepair. The conservation trust secured funding to restore the conservatory in 2012, and it opened to the public in the autumn of 2013. It now houses exotic plants from around the world.
