New for 2025 – Highcliffe Castle Stained Glass 

The Highcliffe Castle stained glass is as unique and eclectic as many other elements of Lord Stuart’s collection and had been badly damaged during the Castle fires and subsequent vandalism in the late 1960s. Professional conservation began here in the summer of 2021.  Following three years of conservation and restoration, our exquisite stained glass will be on display for the very first time.

New for 2025- An Introduction to the Stained Glass Collection 

Alongside our Introductory talk, we will now be offering the option to learn about the Castle Stained Glass collection. This talk includes information on the fascinating history, conservation and display. For those who have recently visited, this is a fantastic opportunity to see the glass on display for the very first time and understand more of the work that goes on behind the scenes.
