Brighton and Hove City Council has provided an update on ongoing works to restore the Royal Pavilion Estate after the project received a £1 million funding boost. The National Lottery Heritage Fund (NLHF) has awarded the regeneration project the seven-figure sum from its Heritage Capital Kickstart Fund. This will be added to the £4.823 million grant allocated by the NLHF for the project in 2016, and the £458,920 granted to the scheme from Arts Council England’s (ACE) Cultural Capital Kickstart Fund last December. These funds will be used to continue phase one of the Royal Pavilion Estate regenration project, which involves refurbishing Brighton Dome’s Grade I-listed Corn Exchange and Grade II-listed Studio Theatre buildings.
