About Our Client

Blenheim Palace Estates

Blenheim Palace is a monumental country house in Woodstock, Oxfordshire and one of only a handful of non-royal, non-episcopal country houses in England to hold the title of 'palace'. Designed by Sir John Vanbrugh and built between 1705 and 1722, it is the principal residence of the Dukes of Marlborough and was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987.

The Partnership

Why Blenheim Palace Estates Trusts Brierty Decoration

Brierty Decoration's appointment as a trusted decorator for the Blenheim Estate reflects our proven expertise in heritage and conservation-grade painting. Our intimate understanding of period materials — from traditional limewash to heritage oil-based finishes — and our ability to work within strict listed building consents makes us ideally suited to this iconic Oxfordshire landmark.

The Project

Blenheim Palace, birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill and one of England's finest examples of English Baroque architecture, requires decorators who understand the unique demands of maintaining a Grade I listed building of international significance.

Brierty Decoration has been entrusted with various decorating projects across the Blenheim Estate, from the grand state rooms to estate cottages and lodges. Each project requires meticulous attention to heritage requirements, using approved materials and traditional techniques that honour the building's 300-year history.

Our work at Blenheim encompasses interior and exterior decoration, specialist paint finishes, and careful colour matching to maintain the Palace's authentic appearance. We work closely with the estate's conservation team to ensure every brushstroke meets the exacting standards expected of a World Heritage Site.

This prestigious relationship is a testament to the trust placed in our team and the consistently exceptional standard of our work. It remains one of our most valued client partnerships.
