About Us

The Palace of Westminster, one of the best recognised buildings in the world, needs essential restoration to preserve it for future generations. The Palace has a rich and remarkable history. Westminster Hall is over 900 years old and has been the scene of great moments in our country’s political life. Covering 34 acres, and the size of more than 1,000 houses, there are 1,100 rooms, 100 staircases, three miles of passageways, four floors and 65 different levels.

As well as being one of the UK’s biggest buildings, it is one of the nation’s busiest workplaces, with thousands of people on site each day, from catering and security staff to MPs and Peers, to experts keeping this iconic building running. The Restoration and Renewal Programme is carrying out the tens of thousands of hours of complex building surveys and investigations needed to inform future decisions on the restoration work needed.

We have already engaged teams of architects, engineers, project managers and contractors who will shape the future direction of the work. Restoring Parliament is already boosting UK industries, and the restoration will use UK materials wherever possible and create jobs and apprenticeships across the country, from engineering and high-tech design to traditional crafts such as carpentry and stonemasonry.
