During 2010 the gardens at the rear of Alford Manor House are undergoing a major restoration and enhancement scheme. This project has been made possible through grant aid by the Heritage Lottery Fund, the Coastal Action Zone, Lincolnshire Gardens Trust and Lincolnshire County Council. There has also been administration support from East Lindsey District Council.

The garden design will be informed by archaeological research carried out by Dr Jonathan Clarke and his team at Field Archaeology Specialists. This information will be incorporated into a new garden design by Jane Leach of Landscape Botanica. The remainder of the conservation work, namely the restoration of the cobbled courtyard and garden wall is bsing carried out by D & A Otter.
