A long-term restoration programme aims to return many of the park’s buildings and monuments to their former glory, with the latest project being the repair of Wentworth Castle’s East Ha-Ha this summer.
Future restoration plans include the Victorian Conservatory, the Kitchen Garden and the Serpentine Lake.
Several family events have been planned before Halloween, starting on October 22.
