Apethorpe Palace, Apethorpe - North Northamptonshire (UA)

Country house, late C15/early C17. Following a Compulsory Purchase Order in 2004 by the Secretary of State, Historic England took possession of the site and carried out a programme of repairs over the following decade. The building was sold on to private buyers in 2015 and they have been carrying out a comprehensive programme of further repairs and renovations, including reversal of harmful mid-C20 alterations by the school. Phase I of the repair programme has been completed and Phase II will complete in summer 2023. Public access for 50 days a year is managed by English Heritage.
