A weather vane from Queen Victoria's Isle of Wight home, Osborne House, has been put back into place following a two year restoration project.
The vane, which dates back to the 1860s, has been in storage for the past 15 years.
It was damaged in a storm and has been 'painstakingly' returned to its former glory atop of the 90ft clock tower.
Using as many original materials as possible, craftsmen repaired the vane before a crane was used to lower it back into place.
A spokesperson for English Heritage said:
"This completes a two year restoration by the charity of the palatial residence’s 90ft clock tower.
"Historical building specialists, G J Banks used a crane to painstakingly lift the historic object, following careful conservation work by local specialists to repair and re-guild the weather vane after it was damaged in a storm.
"The restoration of the weather vane was helped by generous fundraising from the Friends of Osborne, who have been integral supporters of reinstating the item."
A weather vane is an instrument commonly used for showing the direction of the wind.
