Heritage Lottery Fund

A Heritage Lottery Fund grant (and the match funds it attracted) made the conservation of the mosaics possible, as well as the installation of the canopy roof, the kitchen and WC. It also provided funding for a Heritage Officer for 12 months, worksheets for schools, the website, and interpretation materials.
