The Palace Trust (UK, 256356) Browse events

YTD Raised: £0.00

A Hidden Gem Located in England’s smallest city, The Bishop’s Palace in Wells is over 800 years old and is the official home of the Bishop of Bath & Wells. Built in 1206, the medieval Palace and its 14 acres of gardens are home to some of Britain’s most fascinating built, landscape and cultural heritage. The Palace is a Grade 1 listed building and parts of the site are Scheduled Ancient Monuments. Yet our greatest secret is that our gardens contain the pre-historic well pools that give the City its name! Creating the People’s Palace Our purpose is to protect, conserve and make accessible The Bishop's Palace as a place of historic, architectural and landscape interest. We operate the Palace as a visitor attraction and community resource, offering a range of public events, tours, exhibitions, learning opportunities and family activity days. This year we have already welcomed 47,000 visitors, a record for the Palace. We employ a small team of staff and are supported by 300+ volunteers. 60% of our income comes from entrance tickets, membership, venue hire, catering, private and public events. The remainder is raised from voluntary sources, grants and donations. Support The Box Blight Appeal  This year’s annual appeal is raising urgent funds to pay for the replacement of 130 metres of Box hedging in the formal gardens, which are suffering from Box Blight. There is currently no effective cure for this fungal disease, which attacks the Box plant resulting in bare patches and dieback. This means that we will have to dig up all of the current hedging and replace it with a resistant alternative. This work will need to happen over the winter months and our aim is to cause the least disruption as possible to visitors, but it will be a major gardening job for our Head Gardener James and his small team. It will cost in the region of £3,000 to purchase the new hedging, and then James and his team will spend five days removing and then planting up the new hedges - all 320 of them! We have decided to use a new plant called Euonymus because it looks very similar to Box and we will be able to faithfully recreate the look and feel of the gardens, although it will take some years for the plants to mature and get back to their full glory. The simplest and quickest way you can help is to make a donation here through our Virgin Money Giving page. Whatever you can spare will be gratefully received and will help us to ensure that the formal gardens are back in the best possible condition ready for Spring and the new season. And if we reach our target any surplus funds will go directly towards our gardening costs for 2014. Please do consider making a donation via this fundraising page or contact our fundraiser [email protected] to learn how you can support the charitable work of the Bishops Palace. Thank you!
