Perched above the historic Goodwood House, the copper domes are as iconic as they are essential. From Summer 2026 to Summer 2027 vital restoration work is underway to preserve their beauty and integrity for generations to come.
The Copper Dome Restoration Project is a significant conservation initiative to restore all four ornamental domes that sit atop Goodwood House. Works commenced in early 2025 and are expected to complete by autumn 2027. The project will follow a careful timeline of dismantling, restoring and reinstating the domes—maintaining their original design while securing their structure for the future.

After over a century exposed to the elements, the domes' copper cladding and supporting timber structures have deteriorated, resulting in visible cracks and water ingress into the building below. The restoration addresses these urgent issues to protect the integrity of Goodwood House and the priceless contents it shelters. This project ensures the domes not only retain their iconic visual presence but continue to serve their structural and protective purpose.

Built in the 17th century and remodelled significantly during the 18th and 19th centuries, Goodwood House is a living expression of English architectural heritage. The copper domes, added during Regency-era expansions, reflect the grandeur and vision of successive Dukes of Richmond—particularly the 3rd and 5th Dukes, who shaped much of the House’s Palladian aesthetic. These domes have since become one of Goodwood’s most recognisable features.

While restoration works are carefully scheduled to minimise disruption, some scaffolding will be visible from Summer 2026 to Summer 2027. We continue to host weddings, events and house tours as usual, ensuring the warm welcome and exceptional experience for which Goodwood is known. Guests will have the rare chance to witness heritage conservation in action; a moment in time that connects past, present and future.
