Former Royal Naval Academy (Buildings 1/14 and 1/116-9), HM Naval Base, Portsmouth - Portsmouth, City of (UA)

One of the oldest structures in the Dockyard, this building is a Georgian forerunner of the Britannia Royal Naval College at Dartmouth. This building has long been vacant. Natural ventilation and background heating has been introduced and furnishings removed, reducing damp levels. Remedial works to roof coverings and parapet gutters have reduced water ingress and the dry rot appears to be dying back. The cupola has been repainted. Asbestos has been found in the roof and must be removed before full surveys can be undertaken.
