The architect John Soane's former country house is undergoing a £12 million conservation project in order to strip away later alterations and additions and hence restore the house to a state that would be more recognisable to Soane. The drawing room's ceiling, in the wing of George Dance's late C18th predecessor that Soane kept, has been re-painted following extensive paint analyses, and the Chinese wallpaper is being hand-painted.
