Concerned that continuing neglect could cause a deterioration in the fabric of the barn and possibly irreparable decay, the Friends of Croxley Great Barn was set up in late 2002 to seek public support for:
promoting a secure future for this fine fourteenth century structure for the benefit of the community;
seeking funding support from statutory and charitable bodies (English Heritage has indicated that a grant covering up to 75% of the cost of repair could be made available subject to certain conditions being met);
ensuring continued access to, and give consideration to possible public uses of, the building.
Membership of the Friends is £4 annually. This website now includes the Feasibility study commissioned July 2004, published Feb. 2005. We also have a bank account for donations towards the upkeep of the barn (as distinct from our administration costs).
