Condition
Various attempts to manage rising damp have caused a good deal of damage to the Convent and the repair methods have resulted in original fabric being obscured. Damp control has still not been effected. The Convent is in fair condition, with some elements being in very poor condition. The Church and Priesthouse are in good condition. Work has been done on both to alleviate problems of rising damp, insufficient drainage, and the entry of dust into the buildings. Maintenance of both buildings has been undertaken on a regular basis.
