SUMMARY:Historic Building workshop\, Traditional vernacular building construction and materials\, Blickling Hall\, Norfolk
DESCRIPTION:Historic Building workshop\nTraditional vernacular building construction and materials\n\n\nDate: 25 October 2019 \nWhen: 0900 – 1700 \nWhere: Banningham Crown  followed by Blickling Estate \nCost:  £125.00 plus VAT (£150.00) to include seminar proceedings\, all refreshments\, lunch\, entrance to Blickling 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 Blickling House. Although this is a high status building it reflects the use of locally available materials in the early 17th century. The venue has been carefully chosen as Blickling House is a good example of the historic use of a wide range of local building materials. The day will include formal Power Point presentations in the morning at the nearby Walpole Arms\, where we will also have lunch. The afternoon will be devoted to a tour of the site for first hand observations of the buildings. \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. The early 17th century use of glass on a large scale at Blickling House is a good example of the conspicuous display of the wealth of the owner. The interior of the house has good surviving decorative plasterwork from the 17th and 18th centuries. \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 Blickling \nThe house was constructed for Sir Henry Hobart who was the distinguished Chief Justice of the Common Pleas at the court of James 1st. It was designed by Robert Lyminge on the site of a former Medieval and Tudor manor. The house is a very grand Jacobean mansion with no expense spared. The building and its lavish interiors befitting the status of its owner. Of note is the Great Hall\, the Grand Staircase and the Long Gallery\, some 123 feet long. Outstanding original decorative ceilings by Edward Stanyon also survive. \nIn the 18th century there was some remodelling of the north and west ranges by Thomas and William Ivory for John Hobart the second Earl of Buckinghamshire. In 1793 the landscaped park was redesigned by Humphry Repton. In the 19th century a small amount of updating and alterations were undertaken but these do not impinge on the period splendour of the building. \nThe estate was given to the National Trust in 1940 and the house opened to the public in 1962. \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. He was Director of Archaeology for the Test Valley in Hampshire and later moved to Hampshire County Council to join the Historic Buildings Bureau\, where he became the Principal Buildings Conservation Officer for the County. For eleven years he acted as the Director of a Conservation Centre and now runs his own Historic Building Consultancy and Training Company. \nHe advises on the repair and maintenance of all historic structures and provides training at all levels for the building conservation industry.  This includes the development of historic building technology\, traditional materials and hands-on craft training.  Work for Local Government Authorities includes Conservation Area appraisals\, historic building condition surveys and feasibility studies.  He has provided training exercises with local communities to raise awareness of their village plans and local heritage interpretation documents and he has provided Traditional Skills Awareness Courses for a number of bodies. \nHe undertakes the Historic Analysis of buildings and produces: Statements of Significance; Method Statements; Impact Assessments and Specifications for the repair and conservation of traditional buildings. \nHe lectures for various CPD providers\, Universities and national building conservation organizations including SPAB\, RICS and the Weald and Downland Museum.  Topics include: Bricks and Mortar; Lime\, Plasters and Renders; Cob and Earth\, Timber Frame and Stone Structures and Traditional Roofing. \n\nThe day will include formal Power Point presentations\, material handling sessions and first hand observations of the building.\n\nblickling booking form can be downloaded here\nblickling flyer can be downloaded here\n\njoining sheet  can be downloaded here

The building was constructed in the early 1720s for Lord Onslow and replaced an earlier Jacobean house. It reflected the wealth and social status of the original owner and was designed as a prestigious house in which to entertain. The architect was a Venetian\, Giacomo Leoni and is in the Palladian Villa style. The exterior was rather plain in red brick with some stone elements. However the interior was highly decorated with sumptuous plasterwork by the stuccadore\, Giuseppe Artari. The magnificent carved marble fireplace over-mantel reliefs in the Marble Hall were by the great sculptor John Michael Rysbrack. In the late 19th century some alterations and updating of the interior was undertaken. However in the 20th century the house reflected the general decline of the fortunes of many of these old families and was in a poor state of repair after WW2 during which it had been used as an out of London  store for documents from the Public Records Office. The family clung on to the house until it got too much for them and they gifted it to the N.T. in 1956. \nSadly in 2015 there was a disastrous fire which gutted the building and destroyed much of the collection. Restoration of the buildings fabric is due to commence next year so this will be one of the last chances to view the burnt out shell. The fire has revealed details of the original fabric and methods of construction and has raised much discussion as to the philosophy of repair and restoration. \nThe day will include formal Power Point presentations\, material handling sessions and first hand observations of the buildings. The morning’s presentations will be based nearby where we will also have lunch. The afternoon will be spent on site at Clandon Park looking at the building and its materials of construction so come suitably dressed for the weather. \nThe local pallet of traditional materials. \nThe local landscape and historic system of land management affected the availability and use of building materials. In the Medieval period use of flint and stone in the form of chalk Clunch can be seen in the construction of the local churches and flint continues to be used for boundary walls into the 19th century. \nTimber framing was also important in parts of the region in the medieval period but during the 16th century good building timber became scarce as oak was in high demand for ship building for the navy and the  rapidly developing window glass industry was devouring vast quantities of timber. \nIn the late medieval period parts of the area saw the development of a local brick and tile industry which continued to develop and thrive right into the 20th century. \nStraw for thatching was readily available from farming activities. However for the more prestigious vernacular buildings clay tiles were extensively used from the 16th century onwards and where in prolific use by the end of the 19th century. The mid-nineteenth century saw the railways coming to the region and they provided cheap transport for building materials coming from other parts of the country. In this period slate from North Wales became popular for roofing. \nGlass for glazing windows became more available at the end of the 16th century though was expensive. The use of glass on a larger scale during the 17th and 18th centuries is a good example of the conspicuous display of the wealth of the owner. \nClandon Park \nThe house was considered to be one of the most complete examples of early 18th Palladian architecture. The interior had very fine examples of decoration and craftsmanship of the period and also furniture and collections of national importance. \nSadly the fire in 2015 was so severe and developed so quickly that only a small percentage of the contents could be rescued. The fine stucco ceilings were destroyed together with the decorative finishes to the walls. Today the building is a roofless shell\, totally enclosed by a huge scaffold canopy erected immediately after the fire to protect the surviving structural elements. The post fire debris were cleared as an archaeological process and many thousands of pieces of decorative plasterwork recovered. This system of recovery has produced so much information and fragments that it should be possible to reconstruct the architecture and decoration of the principle room. The fire has also revealed much information on the use of materials and details of the construction of the fabric of the house. \nThe conservation of the fabric and restoration of the building is due to commence next year and will involve many skilled craftsmen using traditional materials and techniques to reinstate the buildings grandeur and will take several years. It is proposed to restore the principle rooms to their former appearance. However\, the less significant areas of the interior are likely to be given a modern design to create exhibition and visitor facilities. \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.

SUMMARY:Historic Building workshop\, Traditional vernacular building construction and materials\, Montecute House\, Somerset
DESCRIPTION:Historic Building workshop\nTraditional vernacular building construction and materials\n\n\nDate: Thursday 5 September 2019 \nWhen: 0900 – 1700 \nWhere: Local hotel followed by Montacute House \nCost:  £125.00 plus VAT (£150.00) to include seminar proceedings\, all refreshments\, lunch\, entrance to Montacute 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• The local pallet of historic building materials. These including stone\, stone slates\, plasters and mortar\, and historic glazing.\n• Problems of decay and methods of repair\n• Montacute House\, its history\, materials of construction and evidence for change and repair. \nThe venue has been carefully chosen as Montacute House is a fine example of the use of local vernacular materials and traditional construction. The building was constructed at the end of the 16th century and remained in the same family’s ownership into the 20th century. It reflects the wealth and social status of the original owner and followed the general decline of the fortunes of these old families into the early 20th century. The building also displays good examples of joinery\, early internal decoration and the introduction of glass for domestic window glazing in the latter part of the 16th century. The day will include formal Power Point presentations\, material handling sessions and first hand observations of the buildings. The morning’s presentations will be based nearby where we will also have lunch. The afternoon will be spent on site at Montacute looking at the building and its materials of construction and contents so come suitably dressed for the weather. \nMain Themes \nThe local pallet of traditional materials.\nThe local landscape and historic system of land management affected the availability and use of building materials. The use of stone in the region was prolific and not just confined to the grand buildings and churches but was also used for a variety of ordinary domestic and vernacular buildings.\nTimber framing was also important in parts of the region in the medieval period but during the 16th century good building timber became scarce as oak was in high demand for ship building for the navy and the rapidly developing window glass industry was devouring vast quantities of timber.\nIn the late medieval period parts of the area saw the development of a local brick and tile industry. \nStraw for thatching was readily available from farming activities. However for the more prestigious buildings stone slates were extensively used where easily available. Clay tile was the preferred roofing material in the later periods as towns grew. The mid-nineteenth century saw the railways coming to the region and they provided cheap transport for building materials coming from other parts of the country. In this period slate for roofing became popular.\nGlass for glazing windows became more available at the end of the 16th century though was expensive. The use of glass on a larger scale during the 17th and 18th centuries is a good example of the conspicuous display of the wealth of the owner. \nHistoric Stonework\, Plasterwork\, and Glass – Problems of decay and methods of repair \n• Stone quarrying\, problems of decay\, cleaning and repair.\n• Early lime plasters and mortars\, their application care and repair.\n• The historic development of window glass and Glazing.\n• Approaches to repair and replacement of vernacular materials. \nMontacute House \nThe house was constructed between 1595 and 1601 for Edward Phelips\, a lawyer who had risen through the ranks of Tudor society\, and became an MP and Speaker of The House of Commons. He was Knighted in1603 and also became Master of the Rolls. The house was likely to have been designed and built by master mason William Arnold using the local Ham Hill Oolitic limestone which is a rich honey colour. The “H” plan form was typical of the Tudor period but still retained the more archaic central great hall and screens passage. The top floor was right up to date with a long gallery stretching the whole length of the building and well-lit with windows.\nIn the 1780s alterations were made to the west front to provide a corridor on all floors to give individual access to the rooms rather than having to go through one room to get to the next. Other small internal alterations were also done at this time. \nIn the 19th century the family fortunes were low so the building escaped the usual Victorian make-over which befell many large country houses of the time. It escaped with only minor internal alterations and re-decoration to make it more habitable.\nFamily fortunes continued to decline so in 1913 the house was leased out and much of its original contents sold\, the estate was also broken up and sold off.\nBetween 1915 and 1925 Lord Curzon leased the house as a country retreat and installed his mistress there\, the romantic novelist Elinor Glyn. He did undertake some repairs and re-introduced period furniture.\nIn 1928 the house was put on the market as an empty shell with the possibility of it being sold for the building materials. There were no takers due to the economic decline of the time\, but in 1931 the house and remaining fragments of the estate were purchased by Ernest Cook (Cook Travel) for the sum of £29\,000 and passed to the National Trust. This was only the second country house acquired by the National Trust and at the time they were not really geared up to repair and manage it. They therefore asked the SPAB to repair and manage the property and had hoped to find a tenant. It was opened to the public rather low- key and it was not until 1938 that the Trust took on the full management of the house.\nIn 1946 the Trust began to furnish the empty building with items borrowed from elsewhere and attracted some generous donations of collections including Tapestries\, Samplers and fine period furniture. Today the Trust has a partnership with the National Portrait Gallery and the house has many important period paintings on view. Over the past few years the period gardens\, landscape and setting of the house have been restored to a high standard. \n\n\n\nThe day will include formal Power Point presentations\, material handling sessions and first hand observations of the building.\n\nmontacute booking form can be downloaded here

SUMMARY:Historic Building workshop\, Traditional vernacular building construction and materials
DESCRIPTION:Historic Building workshops – Traditional Vernacular Building Construction and Materials\n\n\n \nDate: Thursday 18 July 2019 \n\nWhen: 0900 – 1700\nWhere: Abbeydale Industrial Hamlet\, Abbeydale Road South\, Sheffield S7 2QW\n\nCost £125 plus VAT (£150.00) to include seminar proceedings\, all refreshments\, lunch\, entry to the museum and comprehensive delegate pack\nThe day’s course will consider in depth three aspects of building conservation. \n[custom_list style=”list-2″] \n\nThe care and repair of traditional materials including stone\, brick\, mortar and stone slates.\nRecognising and interpreting change and adaptation in historic building construction.\nThe construction and former use of the historic Industrial and domestic buildings of Abbeydale\n\nThe venue has been carefully chosen as Abbeydale is an amazingly complete and rare surviving group of industrial and domestic buildings reflecting the vernacular materials and construction of the region in the 18th and 19th centuries. At the time the area was the “Silicon Valley” of the steel industry with its innovative methods of producing metal suitable for sharp edged tools. Although this particular site produced the humble Scythe it reflects the early years of the development of Sheffield as a world leader in the production of steel and fine cutlery. \nThe day will include formal Power Point presentations in the morning and a tour of the site in the afternoon for first hand observations of the buildings and the surviving machinery of the manufacturing processes. \nMain themes \nCare and repair of traditional materials. \nThe use of stone was not just confined to the grand buildings and churches but was also used for a variety of ordinary domestic and vernacular buildings. The methods of quarrying\, selection and use of stone\, identification of causes of failure and the selection of appropriate repair and conservation systems will be considered. Stone roofing slates was also a distinctive historic local material which is now difficult to source and also to find craftsmen capable of undertaking repairs. \nAlthough the most abundant local building material was stone\, brick became the more popular cheap alternative in the 19th century\, particularly with the coming of the railways providing an inexpensive means of bulk transport. \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 mortars and the dangers of the use of modern cementitious products.  The use of inappropriate mortars can result in the rapid deterioration of historic fabric and long term structural problems. The problems of water movement\, salts and frost will be examined.  The methods of re-pointing will also be considered\, not only for aesthetic reasons\, but to ensure the correct performance and durability of the new joint. \nInterpreting change and adaptation. \nMost historic buildings have undergone some change during their life. It is important to recognise the evidence for these changes which in some instances may be the cause of more recent structural movement. Buildings may have been adapted to a new use for which they were not originally structurally designed and again this may be the source of current problems. The tour of the site in the afternoon will give the opportunity to consider first-hand the evidence for changes to the buildings fabric. \nThe historic buildings of Abbeydale \nThe Abbeydale complex was one of the largest water powered industrial sites on the River Sheaf. Originally the water wheels were powered directly by the river but in 1777 a large four acre dam was constructed to provide the greater capacity to power the tilt hammers and grinders. Later a steam engine was added to provide power when there was a shortage of water in the dam. The special tool steel was produced on site in the crucible furnace. This was a local 18th century invention which revolutionised the production process and was the root of the rise of Sheffield as a world renowned steel producer. \nThe site was used for the production of scythes and other edged tools from 1714 to 1933. The historic equipment for all stages of production still survives on site. Most of the buildings date to the 18th and 19th centuries and are mainly constructed in the local stone\, with stone slate covered roofs. One building has a 19th century brick façade\, and the furnaces and their chimneys were also of brick. \nThe complex not only contains industrial buildings and associated machinery but also cottages for the key workers and the manager’s house. \nIn 1960 a public appeal raised £50\,000 for the repair of the buildings and the site was opened to the public in 1970.

SUMMARY:Historic Building workshop\, Traditional vernacular building construction and materials\, Igtham Mote\, Kent
DESCRIPTION:Historic Building workshop\nTraditional vernacular building construction and materials\n\n\n\nDate: 3 July 2019 \nWhen: 0900 – 1700 \nWhere: The Bull Hotel followed by Igtham Mote\, Sevenoaks\, Kent \nCost:  £125.00 plus VAT (£150.00) to include seminar proceedings\, all refreshments\, lunch\, entrance to Igtham Mote and comprehensive delegate pack \nThe day’s course will consider in depth three aspects of building conservation. \n\nThe care and repair of historic timber frames and roof structures\nFrame infill panels\, plaster finishes and historic glazing.\nProblems of decay and methods of repair\n\nThe venue has been carefully chosen as Ightham Mote is a fine example of the use of local vernacular materials and traditional timber framed construction. The building developed from a small 14th century moated complex around its Great Hall into a sophisticated small country house by the end of the 17th century. Much of the early work uses the local Kentish Rag stone and the later work is an excellent example of timber framing. The building also displays good examples of joinery\, early internal decoration and the introduction of glass for domestic window glazing in the latter part of the 16th century. The day will include formal Power Point presentations\, material handling sessions and first hand observations of the buildings. The morning’s presentations will be based at the nearby Hadlow Manor Hotel where we will also have lunch. The afternoon will be spent on site at Ightham Mote looking at the buildings so come suitably dressed for the weather conditions of the day. \nMain Themes \nThe History and Development of Historic Timber Frames and Roof Structures  \nThe historic development of timber frames and roof structures from the medieval period to the 19th century \n\nCauses of decay and failure including mechanical failure\, rot and insect attack.\nApproach to structural repairs\, selection and use of materials and techniques.\nCase Studies\n\n Historic Infill panels\, Plasterwork\, and Glass \n\nThe history and construction of historic infill panels\, including wattle and daub and masonry.\nEarly lime plasters and their application.\nThe historic development of window glass and Glazing.\nApproaches to repair and replacement.\n\nIghtham Mote \nThe buildings were constructed over several centuries and reflect the changing needs of the occupants\, social changes and ideas of more comfortable living. The site was very constrained by being surrounded by a moat so all available space around the central courtyard was developed to the full. Stables and other estate buildings were constructed outside the moated area leaving the internal courtyard free of clutter. The buildings have survived remarkably well with only minor change and updating as the site was off the beaten track\, and the owners were not in high office or in the mainstream of society. From 1592 until 1889 the house was owned by the Selby family but in the 20th century was sold twice and in 1951 was purchased by a consortium of local businessmen who saved it from demolition. In 1953 the estate was purchased by an American who gave it to The National Trust in 1985. From 1990 to 2005 the Trust undertook a major scheme of conservation and are now continuing with a rolling programme of repair and maintenance. \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.

SUMMARY:Historic Building workshop\, Breamore\, Hampshire
DESCRIPTION:Historic Building workshops\, Traditional vernacular building construction and materials \n\n\n\nDate: Wednesday 19 June 2019 \n\nWhen: 0900 – 1700\nWhere: The Wildlife Conservancy Fordingbridge followed by Breamore House\n\n\n\nCost:  £125.00 plus VAT (£150.00) to include seminar proceedings\, all refreshments\, lunch\,  comprehensive delegate pack\n The 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\, cob\, timber\, thatch and tile.\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 venue has been carefully chosen as the Breamore area is a good example of the historic use of a wide range of local building materials. The day will include formal Power Point presentations in the morning at Burgate Manor\, where we will also have lunch. The afternoon will be devoted to a tour of the Breamore area for first hand observations of the buildings including two of the estate barns. One barn is awaiting repair and has temporary supports\, the other was fully restored several years ago. The barns illustrate some of the conservation problems facing an estate with a large number of listed buildings. \nThe local pallet of traditional materials. \nThe local landscape and historic system of land management affected the availability and use of building materials. The 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 particularly in their foundations. \nTimber framing was also important in the medieval period but during the 16th century good building timber became scarce in the area as oak was in high demand for ship building for the navy and the local glass industry was devouring vast quantities of timber. \nIn the late medieval period the area saw the development of a local brick and tile industry. 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. \nStraw for thatching was readily available from the farming activities on the estate and was the most used local roofing material. However for the more prestigious buildings clay tile was the preferred roofing material and again appeared quite early in the region. \nGlass for glazing windows became more available at the end of the 16th century though was expensive. The use of glass on a larger scale during the 17th and 18th centuries is a good example of the conspicuous display of the wealth of the owner. \nOn the eastern side of the river was the escarpment on the fringe of the Crown Lands. Here there are buildings at the other end of the social scale\, constructed in cob. Many of these were encroachment cottages built quickly and cheaply from the ground they were standing on and using round poles of hedgerow timber for their roof structures. \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 the Breamore area. \nThe Breamore area has a long history of occupation and land management. To the west at Rockbourne was a large Roman Villa controlling the arable lands in the Avon valley. At Breamore there is an important Anglo Saxon church and in 1130 an Augustinian priory was founded on land adjacent to the church. \nDuring the Medieval period the area was part of the priory estate and on the eastern side of the river was the Royal hunting park of the New Forest. To the north was the lands controlled by the Bishop of Salisbury with his palace at Clarendon and to the south the vibrant market town of Fordingbridge. \nAfter the Dissolution of the Monasteries the estate past into private hands and in 1583 an Elizabethan mansion was constructed on the old priory site. In 1748 the estate was purchased by Sir Edward Hulse\, Baronet\, and has remained in the family ever since. Two miles south of Breamore is Burgate Manor\, our venue for the morning. This is an early 19th century house in Gothic revival style with a castellated façade facing the river. It would appear to be a remodelling of an earlier building and is a good example of the use of roman cement render to create the Gothic style. \nSpeaker\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.

Extra wings were added during the 16th century and the final phase completed in 1610. The buildings display the height of Tudor fashion with decorative framing\, moulded plasterwork and even a 68 foot long gallery. At this time window glass had become readily available and the windows contain some 30\,000 leaded quarries set in a variety of patterns. \nThe carpenter who worked on the building in1559 was so pleased with his work that it carries the inscription; “Rycharde Dale Carpenter made this windovs by the grac of god” \nBy 1892 the hall was almost derelict when Elizabeth Moreton inherited it. She began a programme of repair which included the insertion of steel rods to stabilise the long gallery as it was suffering badly from roof thrust. The hall was transferred into the ownership of the National Trust in 1938 and they have continued with a sensitive approach to repair. \nDownload the little moreton flyer \nDownload the booking form \nOr book online below with a credit/debit card\, to enter names of delegates if the booking is not for yourself [please use the note field \nYou can also call 07429 523183
