Swaffham - A Historic Market Town Blog

Friday 25 April 2025 – Plowright Place works completed

This week has seen the virtual completion of the Plowright Place project. The scaffolding has come down which has revealed the newly repaired frontage and the new central window. This window is based on the original window of the property. The carriageway roof has now been repaired and the walls repainted with a new entrance way at the courtyard. The project has made Plowright Place much more attractive and will no doubt be enjoyed by the people of Swaffham and visitors alike. Why not pop by and take a look at the finished works. There are some small parts still in progress such as a new hand painted sign and a directory to be added but the major repairs are now all complete. Just take a look at the photographs below to see the improvements and how the restoration has really captured the heritage of the building!.
