The project concerns the refurbishment of the Mount Edgcumbe Barrow Centre

following damage sustained to the accommodation block by a fire on the

afternoon of 04 February 2025.

The primary objective of the project is to re-establish the commercial

operations of the fire damaged parts of the Barrow Centre whilst giving due

consideration to its surroundings, heritage and constraints.

The Barrow Centre comprises the historic service yard and associated buildings

for the Mount Edgcumbe Estate, now utilised as a visitors centre for the modern

park and gardens. The central U-shaped stable block consists of a two and three

storey mixed-use building containing a cafe, shops, workers flats and 2 holiday

lets. The fire damaged section of the property forming the focus of this project

consists of the split level northern wing containing 2 holiday cottages, Yew Tree

Cottage and Horseshoe Cottage, and 2 workers flats, numbers 3 and 6 which in

total provided 8 no. bedrooms.

The Mount Edgcumbe House and Country Park is jointly owned by Cornwall

Council (CC) and Plymouth City Council (PCC). PCC are the insurance

policyholders for the Park and remain the beneficiaries for any sums paid out

under the insurance claim. An agreement between PCC and CC is that CC will

progress the refurbishment works
