Charles and Camilla Visit Refurbished Hillsborough Castle
The County Down site is the Queen's official residence in Northern Ireland and home
to the secretary of state.
The Georgian mansion, dating back to the 1770s, is set within 100 acres of grounds.
It is best known for hosting royal garden parties and peace talks.
The charity has led the refurbishment programme at Hillsborough, in a bid to open
up the grounds and make them more accessible as a tourist destination.
The project received millions of pounds of support from the Heritage Lottery Fund
(HLF).
