The UK government is allocating £41 million to restore 74 historic buildings, including churches, synagogues, market halls, castles and other places of worship. Through the Places of Worship Renewal Fund and the Heritage at Risk Capital Fund, the funding will address critical repairs, structural work and conservation across England, prioritising sites that urgently need support and are vital to local communities. Major heritage sites such as Dover Castle, Brodsworth Hall and Osborne will receive extra investment, while the programme also includes important community‑focused projects like the Margate Museum and a former Post Office in Blackpool.
