What the charity does
We work to save Norris Castle in East Cowes, Isle of Wight, a Grade I listed building at risk, and its historic estate. We raise funds, commission surveys and work with heritage bodies and local groups towards its acquisition and restoration. Through talks, events, volunteering and learning activities, we help people understand and enjoy its history, architecture and landscape.
