  • Stonehenge – Just Stop Oil protest

    English Heritage has removed the orange powdered paint thrown on Stonehenge and thankfully there appears to be no visible damage. We are deeply saddened by the vandalism of such a special site but are looking forward to welcoming people to the Summer Solstice celebrations.

  • King Charles III England Coast Path – The Isle of Wight and Osborne

    For several years, English Heritage has been actively involved in discussions about the proposal that the King Charles III England Coast Path would go through Osborne, Queen Victoria’s seaside home, on the Isle of Wight. Unfortunately, the unique security and conservation challenges posed by the path to this historic site couldn’t be overcome and we are not able to facilitate access.

  • Conservation work at Walmer Castle

    English Heritage is preparing to undertake urgent repairs to Walmer Castle in order to conserve the building and its important historic collection for future generations.

  • English Heritage and the Hamish Ogston Foundation

    In August this year, the Hamish Ogston Foundation committed a major donation – £11.2m – to English Heritage and our new heritage skills programme. However, given the extremely serious nature of the recent allegations concerning Hamish Ogston, English Heritage has decided to sever its ties with the Hamish Ogston Foundation – of which Hamish Ogston is the Chair.
