During 2018 and 2019, further substantial upgrade and restoration of the Manor took place.

Glenhurst designed, supplied and installed a comprehensive and complete mechanical services installation.

The output of the LPHW system is designed to be converted at a later date, to ground source heat pumps, as future proofing and for more economical running costs.
