SUMMARY:Historic Building workshop\, Traditional vernacular building construction and materials\, Godinton House\, Ashford\, Kent - POSTPONED
DESCRIPTION:Historic Building workshop\nTraditional vernacular building construction and materials\n \n\n\nDate: Thursday 9 July 2020 \nWhen: 0900 – 1700 \nWhere: Godinton House\, Godinton Lane\, Ashford\, Kent TN23 3BP \nCost:  £125.00 plus VAT (£150.00) to include seminar proceedings\, all refreshments\, lunch\, entrance to Shugbrough and comprehensive delegate pack \nThe day’s course will consider in depth the following aspects of historic building conservation and the care and repair of the heritage. \n\nThe local pallet of historic building materials. These including brick\, stone\, flint\, timber\, thatch and tile.\nThe more prestigious materials such as decorative plasterwork and glass.\nThe methods of selection and use of materials\, identification of causes of failure and the selection of appropriate repair and conservation systems will all be considered.\n\nThe afternoon will be spent on a visit to Godinton House \nThe local pallet of traditional materials. \nThe use of stone and flint in the region was not just confined to the grand buildings and churches but was also used for a variety of ordinary domestic and vernacular buildings. Timber framing was also important in the medieval period but during the 16th century good building timber became scarce in the region. In the late medieval period the region saw some of the earliest use of brick in the country. After the 16th century brick became the most abundant local building material and was used for both the prestigious houses and the smaller domestic buildings. Water reed for thatching roofs was readily available from the reed beds of the wetland areas of the region. However for the more prestigious buildings clay tile was the preferred roofing material and again appeared quite early in the region. Glass for glazing windows became more available at the end of the 16th century though was expensive. \nCare and Repair  \nThe first important stage of the process of repair is to identify the sources which have caused the problems of decay to occur; these must be resolved before the building can be repaired.  It is also important to understand the nature and function of historic materials and the dangers of the use of modern products which may not be as flexible or vapour permeable as the original materials.  The use of inappropriate mortars can result in the rapid deterioration of historic masonry and long term structural problems. Many of the problems with historic structures are due to lack of maintenance and water ingress. The most appropriate methods of repair will be considered\, not only for aesthetic reasons\, but to ensure the correct performance and durability of the new work.  \nA brief history of Godinton \nGodinton House dates back to the 14th century\, when the Great Hall was first constructed. The house was then constructed around this central room over the subsequent centuries: the greatest part of it is Jacobean\, but the most recent alterations were in the earliest 20th century. For the most part of its history\, Godinton was the seat of the Toke Family\, Kentish gentry\, who oversaw the majority of its construction according to their tastes. Eventually Godinton was sold to the Ashley Dodds\, who employed the architect Reginald Blomfield to alter and update the house and gardens. In 1917\, Godinton was sold to Lillie Bruce Ward\, whose family lived here until the last owner’s death in 1996\nSpeaker\n\n\nKevin Stubbs BA(Hons)  DipBldgCons(AA)  IHBC   CertEd\nKevin Stubbs is a Historic Buildings Consultant and comes with a background of education\, archaeology and building conservation.
