surgery. He was in hospital for over a month. In November 2022 he was admitted through A& E to Craigavon
Hospital for a week relating to complications from surgery. This resulted in some events being cancelled and
projects delayed or postponed. Stephen McManu5 has returned to his work at Milford House, but he continues
to recover, and the Trust has adapted to his taking breaks for medirAI appointments.
European Open Heritage Weekend
The European Open Herilase Weekend in September 2023 was a huge success and an opportunty to
showcase what we have to offer for visitors. The Trust had feared with lack of promotion from European Open
Heritage organizers that there would not be much interest. Indeed, EOH organizers in Belfast did not start
promoting it and contacting organizers until late June. However, visttor numbers were high, and Milford House
continued to be attract one of the biggest visitor numbers of the European Open Heritage weekend.

Amiagh Food and Cider Festival
Armagh Banbrtdge Craigavon Borough Council invited Milford Buildings PreseN8tion Trust to day part in the
Armagh Food and Cider Festival. This coincided with European Open Heritage Weekend and ran for four days
in the second weekend in September. Special house tours with themes on what the family ate and drank took

Fdwardian Etiquette talks
Food themed house tours explorTng how the Mccrum family ate and entertained
Amiagh Georglan Festival
The Armagh Georgian FestlV81 was planned for November 2023 and 211 tickets for events sold out. The event
was a huge success. Events included Georgiaft Afternoon Tea on Thursday. Friday, Saturday and Sunday were
sold out as was all the Georgian House tours on each day. Unfortunately, Armagh Banbridge Craigavon
Borough Council were not willing ta take bookings, SO this complicated the events as Milford Buildings
Preservation Trust struggled lo work with Eventbrite booking system.
Afternoon Tea
Silver service Afternoon Tea in the Dining Room bookings continue to increase. The Trustees must be
commended for org8nizing bookings in the curators absence and providing five star silver service. It
demonstrates Milford House as a working historic house and attracts visttors whojustwanl to enjoy opportunities
to socialize. Milford Buildings Preservation Trust continues to promote this and explore ways for more
experiential visits to provide new audiences to enjoy the propety in different ways
Paranormal Investigations
The Paranormal Investigation bookings h8ve become a regular event and are extremely popular. This attracts
drfferent kinds of audiences which Milford Buildings Presetvation Trust has been unsure about. However, it has
been very successful and benetieial since the donations help support the running costs of the property.
Website
During the p8ndernic the Milford Buildings Preservation Trust website crashed and became unavailable. It
requires being upgraded and redesigned. The Trust was successful in securing emergency funding which will
ensure it can be redesigned. It is currently being designed by CMS Design. However, progress has been slow
due to various issues. The Trust continues to develop and improve webstte.
Universlty Placements
Milford Buildings Preservation Trust continued to work Queens University Belfast offering postgraduates in
museum studies student placements. The Trust was approached by Dr.Leonie Hannan during the summer of
2021 2nd Stephen Mcmanus put together proposals which were also advertised through Northern Ireland
Museums Council. Sadly Dr. Hannan reported back that no students wanted to volunteer wtth Milford House in
2023. She said it was due to the wide variety of placements offered by other museums and historic houses. She
hoped Milford Buildings Preservation Trust would offer placements in 2024 and the Trust confirmed it is
delighted to continue partnership with Queens University- It is also hoped to explore student placements with
University of Ulster.

A Collections Review Report was undertaken by Sean Madden Conservator. This was recommended by
Northern Ireland Museums Council to provide a clearer understanding of the collection's conservation needs
and forward plans to develop the collections. Northern Ireland Museums Council 9rantfunded the report with a
sw,all contribution from Milford Buildings Preservation Trust. As part of this report the Trust has identrfied the
need lo represent the room5 according to the 1930 Milford House Auction Inventory and develop the collections
accordingly. This will give future generations an accurate understanding of what Milford House looked like and
the opulence and grandeur in which the Mccrum family lived. The impact Covid pandemic has set back many
of these projects.
Equipment
Glyneboume in March 2022 offered free transfer of museum display case for costume on Museum Association
website. Milford Buildings Preservation Trust accepted the display case and it has been collected by Armour
Systems Limited (who Glynebourne stated made the case)- After collectton Armour Systems Ltd said they didn't
make the case it was made by Click Netherfield. The case was made in 2002 and valued al £10,000.
Discussions are ongoing about transporting the case over but issues with Brexit have complicated the matter
regarding transporL The Trust continues to work with Armour Security to arrange transport of display case with
Armour Security.
Acquisitions
2023 saw a major acquisition project with Milford House working in partnership with Brighton Museum and
Pavilion. Brighton generously gave on loan a four poster Chinese style bed known as the 'Kings beé.. it had
been on display in bedroom of King George IV for many years al Brighton Pavilion until Royal Collection gave
on loan a bed belonging to George IV from Windsor Castle. The bequest also included transfer and loan temi
loan of many tables and items of fumiture forrepresentation. It also included transfer of two sets of bedhanging's
for the bed.
Brighton Pavilion also transferred by gift a Mott Grand Piano fomiedy on display at Brighton Pavilion. Queen
Victoria had tsken the original which is now at Buckingham Palace. In 1920 Queen Mary purchased and donated
this Mott Piano to Brighton which matched the original taken by Queen Victoria. As Brighton Pavilion had
acquired through funding another original Mott piano which was originally in the Pavilion, they offered Queen
Mary's piano to Milford House.
The Kings bed and Mott piano are works of art and will be star items in Milford House. The project and transfer
of items is very generously funded by Ulster Garden Villages.
The Rev. John Miller and his wrfe Joan continued to vèry generously donate and retum various lost ttems from
Milford House in 2023. Items donated included
Ivory elephants belonging to J.V Collins
An Irish flag which belonged to Peggy Miller.
The Rev. John Miller, his wife Joan and their daughter Margaret visited from Nalm Scotland.
Pla¢es of Science Project
In 2022 Milford Buildlngs Preservation Trust was awarded a £3,000 grant from Royal Society for Places of
Science. The project was lo accurately recreate the famous waterfall In the Dinlng Room, recreate servants
hydraulic lift, purchase servants bell system and recreate the celebrated Dishwasher R.G Mccrum had invented
for Milford House.
Hydraulic Lift- This was a challenge because all the Trust had was description from the12te William Mccrum
Miller R.M of how he loved to visit his grandfather and play to hydraulic lift to get coal from basement. Milford
House was extended at the back by Manor House School and so the lift does not survive. However the Curator
Stephen Mcmanus visited Cragside House in Northumberland the first house in the world to be lit with
hydroelectricity- It is similar to Milford House which was the first in Ireland to be lit with hydroelectriGily. Cragside
still has its servant's hydraulic lift. The curator was able to create an information panel as to how the lift at Milford
House operated with hydraulic rigger, The chairperson Catherine Mcmanus and Stephen Mcmanus visit8d
Wilson Architectural Salvage.

They saw a set of three doors with stain glass windows. It was three doors fixed together. Thls was purchased
and with the help of Mens Shed Armagh volunteers reconstructed at Milford House 3 Victoria Street and now
appears as entrance to hydraulic lift.
Dishwasher- This project proved an immense challenge. R.G Mccrum invented dishwasher but no image of it
survives. Cragside House in Northumberland has a Victorian dishwasher. It was basically a metal box which
rinsed dishes. There are many image5 of early dishwashers. The curator Stephen Mcmanus found an 1885
dishwasher in the Science Museum London collection. No image was available online but when he enquired
about a loan of the object Science Museum said they were moving stores and not giving out loans until 2025,
The Trust was r8conciled to recreating a dishwasher but by chance Stephen Mcmanus found an Victorian Tub
dishwasher for sale on ebay. It was at Kilkurdy House in Scotland. The dishwasher was purchased by transport
proved a nightmare. No courier would collect it so the owners at Kilkurdy House got their staff to wrap it and put
it on a pallet. However, no courier wanted to collect a pallet nor since Brexit did they want to go from Scotland
to Northern Ireland. It was purchased in summer of 2022 but only delivered in February 2023.
Waterfall- From the descriptions of waterf811 at Milford House the Trust knew it was a grotto in a wall and a table
founlain in middle of dinning tsble that seated tsventy four people. The Trustees searched and searched online
finding water features but all proved too small contemporary cr cheap. However Stephen McM2nus found
through Etsy.co.uk a designer called Andy Oram at Sunbeams. He made bespoke water features in copper.
Andy worked with Stephen Mcmanus to design and create a table fountain which matched the description of
what was in Milford House. It is a working water feature and a suitable glass base was found.
Servants bells - Milford House had an electric push button bell system. The original bell box at Milford House
was lost. However the push buttons survive in some rooms to show it was an electric bell system. Antique bell
boxes are readily available bul getting one large enough that had the rooms labels to match Milford House with
its ￿e1ve bedrooms proved impossible. EventLtally Stephen Mcmanus found a large bell box with no room labels
and got a shop in Armagh city lo add the labels Ihat matched the downstairs rooms in Milford House. He them
found on ebay.co.uk a second ele¢triG bell box which only had bedrooms on Ft and Ilsted same number of
bedrooms in Milford House.
Installation of these items was very generously undertaken by volunteers from Armagh Men's Shed.
Conser¥ation work
As result of installation of new displays and acquisitions there was reduced opening of the house in 2023 ta
visitors. The installation of the Mott piano and Kings bed required closing the bedrooms and Drawing Room for
representation. Decoratson work was also required in one bedroom following repairs to burst pipe in 2022. This
gave opportunity in 2023 to update catalogue records and continue lo catslogue the collection.
Financial review
During the year, the charity re￿iVed £11,963 from various sources of income such as grants and donatlons.
Expenditure during the year amountecl to £12,100. Of this, £2,018 was spent on costs directly for the purposes
oflhe charity, with £238 of this recorded as fixed asset additions. Unavoidable overheads totaled £10,082.

of weeds growing in back yard.
Renewal of Accreditation

historic house and 8 Trustoe undertook environmental nionitcring. When restrlctions eased and the house
