I'm A Celebrity: Gwrych castle granted £2m for repairs

Feb 16,2020 6:54 am

The Castle which hosted ITV's I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! is set to be saved from collapse thanks to a £2. 2m grant.

It is hoped Gwrych Castle can be restored to its former glory with The Cash from the National Heritage Memorial Fund (NHMF).

The Grade I listed venue in Abergele in Conwy county requires urgent repairs delayed by the pandemic.

The Venue 's trust said The Work will reverse the " Critical Situation ".

The Castle was built between 1812 and 1822 by Lloyd Hesketh Bamford-Hesketh and was retained within the same family for 1,000 years.

It has a rich history, including providing a place of safety for about 200 Jewish children during World War Two and being used as the training ground of Randolph Turpin , The First black boxer to win a world championship title in 1951.

But The Castle shot to reality TV fame when it hosted the 2020 and 2021 series of I'm A Celebrity.

While it might be most recently known for Creepy Crawlies and daring challenges, the striking three-storey Gothic space is flanked by two lower wings and boasts a great entrance hall, library, drawing room, music room and an Italian marble staircase.

Dr Mark Baker , head of Gwrych Castle Preservation Trust, said The Castle 's buildings are in " perilous condition following the pandemic".

" With this substantial funding award, we can reverse the Critical Situation that The Site is currently in, allowing Gwrych Castle to be returned to its former glory, " He Said .

It is one of several Welsh heritage sites to secure NHMF Covid-19 recovery funding, with Gladstone's Library in Flintshire, Insole Court in Cardiff and two medieval churches also receiving money.
