Update: Proof the Netting is Essential
We’re seeing firsthand just how crucial the recent safety measures have been at The Redesdale Hall. This week, the roof netting caught a loose tile, preventing it from falling into the busy A429 below. This incident highlights the importance of both the previous scaffolding and the newly installed netting, which are vital in ensuring public safety while restoration work continues.
It’s a reminder that these preventive measures were not only necessary but timely, and we’re grateful for the continued patience and support of the community as we work to restore the hall to its former glory.
Stay tuned for more updates on the project!

Netting the Roof to Catch Slates
The Redesdale Hall, a historic landmark in Moreton-in-Marsh, recently underwent essential maintenance after a loose stone tile fell onto the A429. To ensure public safety, experts installed durable netting over the roof to catch any loose materials. This solution, implemented by Heritage Roofing Company and London Pro Abseiling Ltd, maintains the building’s aesthetic while protecting passersby.
Beyond safety, the project preserves the hall’s architectural heritage, ensuring it remains a vital community space for future generations, balancing historical preservation with modern safety needs.
