The Master’s House is surrounded by St Katherine’s car park. Clearly, this surface level car park does not form part of the original characteristic or setting of the prestigious Master’s House.

The aim of this project is to take the austere car park and turn it into The Masters House garden with ample parking. The objective is to utilise scope within St Katherine’s to enhance the civic architecture and townscape. To provide a much more attractive public environment and better use of civic buildings. To ensure a better performing physical estate in Ledbury and more effective use of public assets.

This project will deliver a destination public space for the local community and visitors, complementing recent investment by HC in the renovation of 16th Century Master’s House building.

Phase 1 of the works includes the construction of a retaining wall and filling behind, to create a level platform for St Katherines Square. The cost of the Phase 1 works including all professional fees, must not exceed the available budget. The appointment of a cost consultant will provide assurance that this will not occur.
