The Wharf House Appeal

The fitting-out of The Wharf House has been funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund and By DEFRA. This has enabled us to complete the ground floor - Visitor Centre, kitchen and Restaurant, but left us short of funds for completing the two upper floors. However, these grants left us short of some £80,000 needed to complete the fit-out and furnish the bedrooms.

Our volunteers have done a considerable amount of work on these floors and done it to a high standard. The heating system is installed, most of the electrics, and the skirting and coving. They will continue to sand, varnish and paint.

We are anxious to complete as soon as possible so that we can open for Bed-and-breakfast business and start to realise the full potential of The Wharf House.

The Winter edition of The Wharfinger launched an appeal for help in the form of:
