Projects in the pipeline

Since November 2019, NCBPT’s Board of Trustees has been developing strategies for the future use of the buildings in our care, with the following aims:

To ensure the preservation of The Folly, the Zion complex and Dr Buck’s House for future generations
To make The Folly and Zion sustainable for the long term
To renovate Dr Buck’s House to provide long-term rental accommodation and a gallery space
To generate income to enable the Trust to save other buildings at risk
To make the whole of The Folly accessible to all members of the public
To bring The Folly to life as a hub for local heritage and arts activity
To find a community use for Zion Chapel and Hall
To make a positive contribution to the local economy

The total cost of implementing these projects is estimated to be around £3 million and fundraising is under way. If you can help in any way, by making a donation or an in kind contribution of goods or labour, please contact us.
