\n<\/span><\/p>\nKettle’s Yard, Cardigan Castle and the Royal Crescent in Bath will each get a share of \u00a310m from the Lottery Heritage Fund, it has been announced.<\/p>\n
The largest grant of \u00a34.7m will go towards restoring buildings and gardens and a new heritage centre at Cardigan Castle in Ceredigion.<\/p>\n
The museum and art gallery at Kettle’s Yard in Cambridge will receive \u00a32.32m for new workshops.<\/p>\n
Other recipients include the Grade II listed Charleston Farmhouse in Lewes. <\/p>\n
The country retreat was a favourite of the Bloomsbury group, a gathering of writers, artists and intellectuals whose members included Virginia Woolf and John Maynard Keynes.<\/p>\n
Its \u00a32.4m will go towards a new education and exhibition space.<\/p>\n
Bath’s world famous Royal Crescent will receive \u00a31.4m million for a restoration project.<\/p>\n
The funding will enable the house at No 1 – now a museum – and No 1a – once used as the servants’ quarters – to be connected and create a larger museum.<\/p>\n
A new exhibition space will show visitors what life would have been like in Bath at the time of the building’s construction in the 1700s.<\/p>\n
The Crescent was featured in the 2008 film, The Duchess, starring Keira Knightley.<\/p>\n
Dame Jenny Abramsky, chairwoman of the Heritage Lottery Fund, said the projects “demonstrate the huge breadth of our investment and our commitment to championing all sorts of heritage”.<\/p>\n
She added: “We are, however, living in tough times and there is considerable competition for our grants so value for money and offering a wide range of benefits, such as providing local people with training and volunteering opportunities and saving heritage at risk continue to be crucial.”<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n
