The restoration of a 300-year-old home and garden has been recognised in yet another award.
Grade II listed Frogmore House, in Lower High Street near Bushey Arches, was refurbished at a cost of £2 million, paid for by a developer.
When Watford Borough Council passed plans in November 2017 for 92 flats and a Lidl supermarket, it came with the condition that Frogmore House was restored.
Now the building has been recognised by the Civic Trust Awards and was one of only seven projects nationally to be nominated as finalists in the ‘Civic Trust AABC Conservation Award’ category.
It was chosen for demonstrating the highest standards of historic building conservation and the awards will be announced on 7 March.
In October, 2021, it was also recognised at the Georgian Group’s Architectural Awards.
