Grants

From the Lottery Heritage Fund we have received a grant for the construnction of a boardwalk and the improvement of access and paths to Higher Kiln Quarry.

From the Awards for All Lottery Fund we have received a grant for improvements to the courtyard and drainage of the site.

From the Devon Stone Federation we have received a grant to help with the surfacing.
