About

Climate change impacts our lives in many ways. One area which is often overlooked is the effect it can have on our historic environment and buildings.
This exhibition outlines the risks to our historic environment from factors such as increased rainfall, carbon emissions, coastal erosion, storms and flooding.
Find out about some examples of how the effects of climate change on our historic environment have been mitigated by the National Trust at Mount Stewart and by Ards and North Down Borough Council at Donaghadee's Motte and Camera Obscura.
