The list includes buildings and monuments that are at risk of falling into disrepair through disuse or inappropriate development.
Also saved were the Grade II-listed Georgian orangery, fire engine house and potting sheds in the grounds of Ripley Castle near Harrogate, home of the Ingilby baronets. They spent over 20 years on the danger list before repairs were finally finished.
Castle owner Sir Thomas Ingilby said: “I’m extremely grateful to Historic England for the help and support over many years which have helped to repair these handsome historic garden buildings which form the centrepiece of Ripley Castle’s beautiful grounds. Their restoration will improve the experience of the tens of thousands of people who visit every year.”
Yet Historic England fears for the future of the Rockingham Kiln in Swinton, near Rotherham, once part of an internationally famous porcelain works that produced flamboyant ornaments and crockery for royalty.The bottle-shaped building is a rare survivor from the site, which became famous because of its popularity with the Fitzwilliam family at nearby Wentworth Woodhouse. Although it closed in 1842, examples of the pottery are still highly prized.
The kiln’s condition has declined and it is disused, but Rotherham Council hope to eventually repurpose it. Two country houses have contrasting fates – Ledston Hall near Castleford has been taken off the list following its conversion into flats, after the majority of the Grade I-listed mansion became vacant. However, Lupset Hall nearhas been added to it as its future is uncertain. The house was in council ownership and used as a golf course’s clubhouse until 2014, when it was sold, but subsequent private owners have so far not progressed plans for residential redevelopment.
