We have been organising historic building owners' days since 2001 thanks to initial grant aid from the Heritage Lottery Fund and dedicated volunteers led by Primrose Wilson.
These popular practical information days, which often involve traditional building skills demonstrations, are held in historic buildings across the Province. Some have focused on particular buildings types such as churches and vernacular buildings and have recently been expanded to target professionals.
